Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

How's your stuff doing? Unplanned interruptions or achieving uptime records?

I'm currently sailing rather smooth. Most of my stuff is migrated to Komodo, there will stay some exceptions and I only have to migrate Lemmy itself I think. Of course that's when I found a potential replacement but I'll let it sit for a while before touching it again. Enjoying the occasional Merge Request notification from the Renovate Bot and knowing my stuff is mostly up to date.

I'm thinking about setting up some kind of Wiki for my other niche hobby (Netrunner LCG) lore as there's a fandom one that most people avoid touching and updating but since I likely won't have time to start writing some articles on my own as a kickoff I'm hesitant. Also not sure which wiki I'd choose as well.

Running multiple things in one host is perfectly fine. The more you have, the more complicated dependencies will become. Tool A needing PHP < 8 and tool B needing PHP 9 can be handled but is a headache.

That's why many people are using containers, specifically Docker. Each tool brings their own dependencies that are running isolated. Not sharing dependencies is more resource intensive but easier to handle.

I'm not running the tools you mentioned but probably they list their resources requirements. I suggest you to check containers/Docker and consider using them instead of installing the tools natively.

Ah, docker is a name I'd heard hanging around the lemmy space. I looked into it a little and couldn't figure out what its usecase was, but that makes a fair bit of sense, thanks
