Expectattions: start wordpress, install ActivityPub and Friends plugins, add few subscriptions, and I will have best of both words (feed a-la what I have in Mastodon, and long posts writing with formatting -la medium.
Sad reality meme must be here.
Now I see that Friends feed is not being updated, even I know these people wrote new posts.

Inspired by @ele selfhosting journey and I trying to get all this working and what I started from is getting Ghost working inside Yunohost.
Not that I want to publish a paid newsletter, I just thinking about moving from Medium and I like Ghost's post editor 😜
But I guess I did something wrong or whatever. Does yunohost allow install app like ghost right at domain root? Without some path like `/blog`? If that "blog" path added, Fediverse features seems to not work.

So after a couple of days of snooping around and butting into conversations, I guess it's #introduction time 😁
I'm originally from Singapore, but moved to Naarm (Melbourne, Australia) in 2004.
I have been in the hospitality industry for 18 years.
The last 12 of which have been spent in the kitchen as a chef. I post about #food a lot 😏
I also have a background in #Anthropology, #SocialTheory and #HumanNutrition.
Am currently in the middle of a #PhD in #Education - researching community #foodpedagogies as well as food education in #PublicHealth.
I am passionate about #SocialJustice, #FoodSecurity, #Decolonisation and dismantling systems that perpetuate division and inequity.
I am a #dancer, #SciFi geek, a novice gardener and have a regular #yoga practice.
Open to meet anyone and everyone. Excited to be here and looking forward to many amazing conversations and friendships! 💜

Dear Fedi friends,
Happy Thursday from rainy northern Italy 🌧️
In case you missed it: I've spent the past two weeks doing all kinds of #selfhosting explorations, as I strive to learn #Docker to move my Ghost site there (it's recommended for Ghost v6 and going forward).
Yesterday I shared a blog post about the peaches (highs) and pits (lows) in #MySoCalledSudoLife adventures.
I'm hoping my mistakes can be useful for fellow newbies 😅

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting: day 249 (mind of a #newbie edition) 🧠
a blog post about what it's like for newbies to self-host... read till the end to find out what caused my OVH VPS fail (a facepalm moment for sure):

I'll probably take a break from self-hosting and reading about #Docker (my Everest) for the rest of the weekend... so I can come back to it on Monday with my batteries fully recharged 😅

Dear Fedi friends,
Sometimes it's good to know when you need to call it a day. Today I ended my #sudo exploits at 10:00am... I'm mentally exhausted already... but happy about the progress I made.
I started tinkering with my new VPS at 7:30am and managed the following tasks:
- installed #fail2ban
- installed #Docker and checked if it was running successfully with their "hello world" method (it does)
- enabled remote access changing the listening port
- secured the connection with TLS
I wasn't able to create a new Docker context on Docker Desktop to point to my VPS... I ran into error messages about having to include certificates (with the right path)... so I decided to call it a day.
I wanted to end my Day 1 of Docker explorations on a good note.
I plan on writing about this on my blog later today so I can refer back to the steps later... when I actually install Docker on my VPS running Ghost.
Onwards and upwards (it's very apt that "sudo" in Italian means "I sweat" LOOOOL)

I'm working on becoming a Ham Radio operator. If any hams out there have some used gear that might be good for a rank newbie to get started with, DM me!
Here's my first blog on the process. https://dougnix.net/2025/08/17/becoming-a-ham-radio-operator/
