Manyfold v0.114.0 is out, once again focused on public instances. Features include automatic setup of a creator profile for new users, required creator and license for published models, and the usual host of bugfixes.

And, get ready, because now that lot's done, we're launching our public instance *very* soon.

#3DPrinting @3dprinting #SelfHosted #ActivityPub

Everyone is now realizing that WhatsApp is evolving towards its latest form (https://archive.md/L3W74). If you value secure messaging, you may want to check out @signalapp or @matrix (wich is #federated). EPFL also has its own Matrix instance at https://matrix.epfl.ch (use @element as a client).

Day 9
TL;DR: Forgejo

Installed Forgejo and configured its native runner from scratch on Debian. Started with Woodpecker, but it turned out unnecessary. Everything now works locally with Docker integration and a working CI workflow.

The first self-hosted service I installed on my #RaspberryPi #homelab was #Navidrome. Just updated it via `dietpi-software reinstall 204`. It's my most used #selfhosted app. I really need to write a post on it....

Oh snap! `YARR - Yet Another RSS Reader` has a new version and I missed it in March!
https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr/releases/tag/v2.5
YARR is like Feedly or NewsBlur, except more like TinyRSS or FreshRSS - you can self-host.

UNLIKE those, you can tell yarr to run at `<ip:port>`, so you can stick it at port 7666 for your reverse #proxy. And its lightweight, I run my own AND 3 other instances for fam. members on the same host accessed via different subdomains re-proxied by #nginx.

Today is a day when I canceled my #Fastmail subscription in favor of #Infomaniak email service.

I also started migrating domains from #cloudflare to #Infomaniak.

I'm planning to deploy #Pangolin on a VPS once I need to set up tunnels.

Less #US more #EU =)

Hey, that could be a nice tag: #LessUSmoreEU

#CommunityHosting #Ops

A small group of us are working on community level hosting of 'self-hosted' FOSS tools (think #NextCloud and more) setup as a local service offering for local grassroots organisations. We're seeking advice/tips/guidance.

We're keen to do some orchastration but want to avoid the complexity of say Kubernetes.

As a start we were looking at Ansible with Docker Swarm but we're now exploring other alternatives.

Anyone have experience at this sort of hobbist just a bit bigger than #HomeLab Ops scale?

#Pyinfra is being considered as an Ansible, in the projects words "Think ansible but Python instead of YAML, and a lot faster." (https://pyinfra.com)

Anyone have experience at this homelab/small hosting level? Would love any tips/suggestions for tools/approaches.

One source of inspiration is the 12Factor app methodology: https://12factor.net

Personally, as a rubyist I'm always keen to know what the ruby community is doing in this space also.

Haven't seen many others doing work at this scale, lets use the tag #CommunityHosting to keep connected :)

HortusFox has reached 1000 stars on GitHub! Thank you all so much for your outstanding support! I am very thankful and appreciate all the love that is given back to the project. Happy plant parenting!

#webdev #php #selfhosted #selfhosting #opensource #foss#plants #gardening #botany #horticulture

Not a bad start at all, straight from a handwritten note into reflect and mostly free thanks to a bit of self hosting.

Anyone else going basic with their NAS?

Is there a way to get Home Assistant to behave like Google Assistant, like with speech-to-text commands and queries?

Like, when I used Google Assistant, I was able to say "Hey Google, give me directions to the nearest Dunkin'". Does Home Assistant have that capability with plugins and such?

My Joplin Docker container randomly decided it doesn't want to work anymore.

Using `joplin/server:latest` on a regular-ass Intel i5 PC...

`exec /usr/local/bin/tini: exec format error`

Which, I believe, is the "you're trying to run the AMD64 build on ARM" error....

As Google has a massive service disruption, I'm enjoying my #SelfHosted systems running just fine.

Of course, I only have 2 nines of uptime versus their many-more-than-2, but I'll take my wins when I can get them.

New intro
(because that's what you do when you move to a new instance, right?)

I've just moved servers: from a self-hosted mastodon instance to a self-hosted gotosocial instance, everything is a work in progress.

In the meantime, I post in English and/or Dutch about politics (I try to CW), silly household solutions, cross stitch embroidery and patchwork quilting.

It seems most of my online presence is a work in progress (ignoring all previous instructions) while I try to DeBigTech my life.

Hi!

I think this is my first introduction ever in de fediverse! ⁂
