I really wish every #selfhost service would be made available as container without external dependencies by the projects themselves. Bonus points if the containers are #rootless for obvious security reasons. Many are. I can run my forgejo instance [1] that way, I run my Uptime Kuma instance [2] that way. I am looking at GotoSocial and Sharkey this weekend and will try to get them up and running the same way. @homelab

Hi @lproven,
nice! I'm using several #CGI​s #RFC3875 for personal (scaled to n=1) web applications - be it (ephemeral) #QRCodehttps://qr.mro.name, #GeoHashhttps://mro.name/g/u28br conversion, a #nobd guestbook or a personal #ActivityPub server @aSeppoToTry or a hacky video-office-hours reservation system.
They're #rootless deployments running on #shared #hosting (except the qrcodes).
