jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Indice : pas besoin de changer de navigateur, juste de changer de point de vue. 😏
Plus d’infos très bientôt…

RE: https://social.ridetrans.it/@Andres4NY/117573322230525781
Overnight and today, I moved 15 domains away from #NameCheap after several decades. Various reasons, from service interruptions for the first time, to policies they are changing, to price increases every time the sun sets and the moon rises. This stuff happened after Private Equity took them over. I went more than a decade and a half without a support ticket and in the past year, three.
I've already moved hosting and went down from 3 hosting servers to just one and I have been migrating it out for a few months and hope to pull the trigger by October 17th. It was my largest server and held 70% of my server apps, email, etc
It's like losing an old friend or moving out of your childhood home. #PrivateEquity
So namecheap just randomly locked my domain (which I've had with them since.. 2006) until I send them a valid government ID.
No complaints about the domain, just a random check. What the actual fuck?? #Namecheap #DNS
New blog post: I built a small AI reviewer for my self-hosted Forgejo. It reads every pull request, posts a summary and inline findings, and is not allowed to do anything else.
The hard part was not the integration. It was making it stop being confidently wrong: on my biggest real PR, 18 of 29 first-pass findings were discarded after a second pass checked them against the actual code.

Interessanter Artikel für Rechtsanwält:innen, Steuerkanzleien, usw., ist allerdings recht "nerdig" ;)

This is a good guide and explanation. I also think it is great that Tom covers CrowdSec at the end, which I would like to try out soon.

Ready to read: How murad.chat fits the fediverse on one VPS
GoToSocial, PeerTube, Lemmy, Matrix, a Bluesky PDS and Nostr on one 8-core VPS. How I tamed Pixelfed's Horizon (79% to 16% of its memory limit), cut Celery workers, capped every container and then loosened the limits that were starving the apps.
Mein Roman existiert dreifach: im Obsidian-Vault, in einem Backup auf dem eigenen Server und in einem Ordner einer alten externen Platte. Wie paranoid seid ihr? Habt ihr auch Angst, eure ganze Arbeit zu verlieren – und wie sichert ihr sie?

This looks interesting. I have been using Nextcloud for years, but have been curious about alternatives.
Fedi networking wizards, I need help with the following riddle:
A VPS, two IPs with different gateways, and two users + admin. Each user should get its own IP (and IPv6 ideally). Outgoing IP matching incoming matters (so I can't receive traffic from two different IPs but respond from one).
Searched far and wide but can't find anything that would address the situation where one has one NIC and two gateways
Meine Nextcloud ist nach den PHP-Lücken immer noch offline, ich habs einfach noch nicht geschafft, die Patches einzuspielen.
Ich hinterfrage aktuell auch ein bisschen, ob ich eigentlich weiter Webservices offen im Internet betreiben will. Oder ob ich nicht z.B. die Nextcloud auf eine managed-Version umziehen will, wo Updates usw. beim Hoster liegen🤔

With #HomeAssistant 2026.11 on the horizon, I thought I’d audit my configuration for stale entity references ahead of the changes to entity naming.
Rather conveniently, it turned up three references that hadn’t survived some earlier #Zigbee device renaming. A little Python, a few YAML edits, and a clean configuration check later, all sorted.
Always nice to discover your configuration is squiffy before some breaks.
If, hypothetically, I wanted to self-host e-mail on a VPS, is it possible to set it up so that the mails are end-to-end encrypted in a way that the company who operates the VPS cannot read them? That is: the mails arrive at the serve encrypted, are stored on the server encrypted, and leave the server still encrypted. I assume this is what services like Proton (claim to) do, so presumably it *is* possible? But what's actually involved in that?

Words, compiled: The file server I didn't know I needed: copyparty
Every now and then a piece of software solves the problem I installed it for and then keeps showing me other problems it can solve. copyparty is one of those. I've been using it and I'm honestly loving it. The pitch sounds almost too simple: run a program, point it at a folder, open a browser, and there are your files. That's only the…
Freshly written: Newt and OpenBSD
The plan was simple: spin up an OpenBSD VM on Proxmox to host a small static site generated with an SSG. No giant stack, no Docker, no panel full of abstractions in the middle. Just a clean, predictable system with httpd serving static files, the way OpenBSD likes it. On the public side I already had something running on a VPS: Pangolin, Traefik and Gerbil. Their job is to…
Hello, I'd like to try self host server at home with rpi (start with own calendar, small steps to own my data) but I dont want to expose my home router to internet. So I'd like to use wireguard vpn and go through my vps to my home network. Unfortunately wireguard does not work on some networks outside of my home. Network is dropping after handshake udp packets (maybe caused by deep packet inspection, I am not sure, random udp packets sending to public ip have been sent without problem). I've already tried different port, decreased the mtu, but still wg packets are dropping. do you know solution how could i hide wireguard comunnication to avoid dropping packest and the solution will also work on iphone? Id like to keep wireguard, vps is openbsd...☺️🚀

Moin! 👋 Ich bin Thomas und neu hier auf norden.social.
Auf kabelbruch.de blogge ich über mein Homelab: Proxmox, Self-Hosting, IT-Security für zu Hause, Home Assistant und bald auch Meshtastic & MeshCore. Motto: Basteln, ausprobieren, auch mal scheitern – und darüber schreiben.
Neue Artikel kündige ich hier an. Fragen, Tipps und „Das hätte ich anders gemacht“ gern als Antwort.

I recently discovered the My Media skill for Amazon Alexa. I had been looking for something like this ever since Plex discontinued their Plex skill.
My Media installs on your local home server or a dedicated PC. It has a web interface for adding music/watch folders and creating playlists.
I created a "Favorites" playlist and added an Alexa routine for "Play My Favorite Songs." It then silently asks, "Ask My Media to play my Favorites playlist." It auto-shuffles and starts playing music on the device you speak to.
I then used the piggyback technique to get it to play music on multiple Echo devices across the "Everywhere" group. To do this, create a routine called "Play Music Everywhere." This plays music from Amazon Music everywhere, waits 5 seconds, and then asks My Media to play my Favorites playlist. Essentially, it hijacks the "play everywhere" feature with your My Media music.
This has been working great so far, and I have since created playlists and routines for various genres. I even added a "White Noise" playlist ("Alexa, play white noise") for sleeping.
My Media has a 7-day free trial but only costs $9.50/year if you decide to continue using it.
I can now play music everywhere, skip songs, and change genres all with voice commands.
