Selfhosted

39940 readers
761 users here now

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.

Ok, back to meme school for you

Yeah, the format is that she repeats the second panel on the fourth panel, with more question marks and concern. This version is almost like explaining the joke here.

Is there a community for gently abused memes that I can post this to?

This is my favorite Star Trek episode, too. Ruined.

Isn't selfhosted started by the same dude that started lemmy.world? Meaning it really is selfhosted? πŸ€”

Stop pointing shit out and grab your bean fork, we're rioting!

I have to be careful and ration my bean memes.

It's an older crossover, but it checks out

Actually an instance dedicated to self hosted stuff would be great. We could have communities specifically for things like home lab, media hosting (Plex, Jellyfin, Emby), unRAID, TrueNAS, shit posting, hardware discussions, general conversations, etc.

This would reduce the strain on lemmy.world and give us all a dedicated home for more niche topics without posts getting buried

Something like selfhost.edu/c/jellyfin or self.host is a great name too, if I was in the position to do it I would haha

Considering how overloaded lemmy.world is right now, a pi in someone's basement would be better, and besides, centralization is bad. Federation is what prevents lemmy from becoming the next Twitter.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Literally just left lemmy.world because of how brutally slow it's been

My favorite part is when it finally becomes somewhat less overloaded, and my instance gets flooded with a bunch of posts from there filling the entirety of my front page, and the second page...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I want to move to a selfhosted instance once I can migrate my account. Anyone knows if this feature will be implemented ?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

I think it's far down on their list of things to do unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 1 year ago

Well, did you self host this meme?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I laughed but I dunno about you guys but I don't publicly self host anything. If you can't auth via ssh or VPN then you're not accessing a damn thing from my home network. I've got multiple routers that I could set up some isolation with but it's just too close to home.

Can't get hacked if all your services are down because you can't get those cocksuckingmothershitbitchingassbastard routing tables right 🀯

Me having everything open: Come here mother***s I am waiting for all of you.

VPNs? Cloudfare? Cloudfare Tunnels? Tailscale? What's all that? Here we are fighters not pus***s.

(Just kidding about the previos comments haha, well I have it open but it's not on my home network... so slightly less problematic and tbh I am planning on closing some stuff, plus all is behind logins, and tbh I kind of like to be able to access to it from anywhere/any computer without having to use any special connection)

Do you trust yourself to sustain this considerable commitment?

This meme template NEVER gets old, lmao.... Anakin's face always gets me

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (25 children)

I’m hosting one right now. Lemmyunchained.net

But in will have to Limit Users at some point.

I dont Think people properly understand they can be on any server. And join multiple communities. And it all Show up in their Feed. They don’t Need to worry about β€œwhich community has the Most Users”

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (17 children)

Yes they can be on any instance, but I'm starting to get worried about the number of communities that are on Lemmy.world

Shameless self-insert, if you want a new instance, try mine! https://lemmings.world, it's a general-purpose instance and everyone's welcome!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Eh, I guess I'm doing my part then 🀷

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is always: https://slrpnk.net/c/selfhosting 100% certified self-hosted from free-ranging servers πŸ˜…

I want to self-host but don't know how to code etc so not sure where to even start

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

Never self-hosted Lemmy, but have self-hosted other things in the past. While you don't necessarily need to code, you need a fair amount of code-adjacent skills. If you ever want to get into self-hosting, you should have a look into (at least):

  • the linux command line
  • ssh
  • how ports work
  • VPS providers
  • DNS registrars
  • nginx
  • docker (while you don't need it to host things, it makes your life 10x easier)

Oh my god, I laughed so loudly that I had to explain this comic to my wife. She thought I'm dying already.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you self host a community how would anyone find it?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

post it in New Communities and also it should show in Lemmy Explorer
