Aiuto per iniziare esperienza selfhost

@localhost

Letto il primo articolo sul blog di Elena Rossini @_elena su come muoversi nel mondo del selfhosting e lei con i principianti di questo settore, parlava di Hostinger come servizio di base e un altro come "più avanzato".
Da quanto ho capito, Hostinger ha un'interfaccia web per gestire il terminale insomma la linea di comando
Essendo legata all'accessibilità per poter compiere scelte di acquisto, vorrei capire se (con o senza hostinger) posso provare questa interfaccia web prima di decidere se avvicinarmi o no al provider. E nel caso non fosse accessibile, se mi conviene puntare su hostinger lo stesso, o muovermi altrove.
Fra l'altro mi scoccia un po' che tocchi mettere la debian 12 perché a quanto sembra, YunoHost non funziona sulla debian 13.

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/
