.... aaaaaaaaaaand done :3 Was a ton of work (espc fixing repo links, permissions, uploading, deprecating the npmjs.com entry and so on), but it's over! So happy to got it moved so smoothly.

Now I need to think about how long before starting deletion of lesser used packages, since I dont really want npmjs to host the data any longer than neccessary....

Finally got around of migrating my npm packages (20) to the npm repository in my self-hosted forgejo. While it's not a frictionless process (changing all url's etc.) it eases my brain knowing that my packages aren't hosted by some corporate bs site.

Self-Hosting an ActivityPub Video Podcast Is Surprisingly Affordable

2/

A typical 1-hour podcast episode at 1080p 60 fps is around 5.4 GB.

At one episode per week, that's about 280 GB per year.

Even after 5 years, your entire podcast archive would only use about 1.4 TB of storage.

That is it.

Self-Hosting an ActivityPub Video Podcast Is Surprisingly Affordable

3/

A 2 TB hard drive is often available for around $50–$60, which is enough space for five years of weekly episodes.

Need more room?

4 TB, 8 TB, 12 TB, and even 16 TB drives are widely available and far more affordable than most people expect. (Ex: 8TB is about $130 to $170.)

Self-Hosting an ActivityPub Video Podcast Is Surprisingly Affordable

When you look at the actual storage requirements, self-hosting a video podcast on the Fediverse starts to look a lot less intimidating — and a lot more realistic.

It is affordable — especially with your own HomeLab (where you buy your own hard drives rather than rent them).

Self-Hosting an ActivityPub Video Podcast Is Surprisingly Affordable

1/

Imagine this.

You want to launch your own video podcast.

A new episode every week.
Each episode is 1 hour long.
Full HD (1080p), 60 fps video.

What would it cost to host it yourself?

Before I ran the numbers, I assumed it would be expensive — maybe even impractical.

I was wrong.

The reality is surprisingly affordable.

Here is why.

Nice. A few seconds after renewing my #LetsEncrypt certificate for my 43 domains and subdomains, each of them got hammered with about 35 requests at the same time, from some silly tool called leakix[.]net that looks for stuff like ".env" or ".git", without rate limiting. My little VPS was not amused (load avg. peaked at 24) , and I now have a new rule that drops packets from any IP that comes close to my httpd with an user agent that contains "leakix". Good riddance. #selfhosting

My mastodon instance had a short downtime earlier. This was caused by a power cut.

Which in turn was caused by me stupidly cutting a power cable with my hedge trimmer (thus triggering the main fuse to trip). Oops 😬

The dangers of #selfhosting when one is a bit clumsy I suppose 😁

#homelab maintenance complete. I finally configured unattended-upgrades on the Ubuntu servers - I'd put that off far too long.

#technitium cluster also upgraded to 15.2.

New post: Two Sites, One Cluster.

Two cheap Hetzner boxes, one in Nuremberg and one in Helsinki, fused into a single Proxmox VE cluster over vSwitch VLANs. VXLAN overlay for the guests, an external QDevice so two nodes can still hold quorum, BGP-driven OPNsense failover, and async ZFS replication.

The corosync link sits at 25ms RTT, five times what Proxmox wants. It works anyway, and the post is honest about exactly why, and when it wouldn't.

My RaspberryPi 4 is already running too many services and sometimes Pi-hole is becoming unresponsive which is very annoying...

Today I got myself a Lenovo Tiny from eBay. For some strange reason I had to resist the urge to order 3 of them, print a rack and build a cluster...

Then I have installed Debian, installed and configured some basic packages and I have setup up the borgmatic. While doing this I realized I definitely need to spend more time with Ansible...

The first service I have migrated was Prometheus, the CPU load on the Pi already got a bit less. But not that much, the next service to migrate will be InflxuDB which is eating a lot CPU and IO, but that's something I'll do tomorrow.

A friend asked me about costs etc. in running my own Mastodon (glitch-soc) instance.

My reply might be useful more broadly:

Costs: I run mine on an Intel NUC, for which I paid about ~£200. But I ran for years on a Raspberry Pi, which was fine until my account got a bit big. It consumes some electricity, and I already have an Internet connection with IPv6 and a spare IPv4. So, incrementally, beyond the cost of the hardware, very little.

Time to set up: it took me about 30 minutes *but* I am already familiar with hardening a Linux server, and I build the basic infrastructure automatically. Honestly, this is the bit that would concern me the most, for someone planning on putting a box on the Internet. But it could also be a fun learning exercise.

Time to maintain: a few minutes a month. Upgrades are easy enough. Backups are automatic (because I have automated them).

Microsoft hat mit Azure Linux 4.0 seine eigene Linux-Distribution veröffentlicht. „Microsoft loves Linux", schon klar.

Ich habe genauer hingeschaut und einen längeren Text dazu geschrieben — über Steve Ballmers „Krebsgeschwür"-Rhetorik, über die Jahre, in denen Microsoft an praktisch jedem Android-Telefon mitverdiente, über Embrace, Extend, Extinguish, und über die Frage, was „Souveränität" eigentlich noch bedeutet, wenn das eigene Linux in einer fremden Cloud kuratiert wird.

Kleine Offenlegung vorweg: Ich habe von 2005 bis 2011 selbst für Microsoft gearbeitet. Das hier ist also keine Abrechnung von außen, eher ein Learning von jemandem, der die Maschine von innen kannte.

Der Text nimmt die wohlwollende Lesart durchaus ernst, seht selbst, er endet trotzdem unbequem:
„Linux in der fremden Cloud, kuratiert von fremder Hand, aktualisiert aus fremder Registry … das ist keine Souveränität. Das ist ein Mietverhältnis."

I have secured my home access a bit more.

I now run a Wireguard VPN-server inside an Incus container.

The container has two interfaces.
One on my LAN and one only shared with the host via Incus.

The host runs a ssh-server that only binds to the interface shared with the container.

So the only access to my ssh-server is through the VPN.

The VPN is configured with a PSK to be more resistant against post quantum encryption.

My ssh-server only accepts key-authentication and post quantum KEX.

Hey #selfhosting people. Do you self host Yunohost from within your home network? How do you deal with it or some of its Apps wanting to send / receive email?

For example ghost wants people to sign up via email, and then wants to send outbound email to them. That's not gonna happen from within my home network as both ISP blocks outbound email as well as my IP block being on a spamhaus blocklist. So what?
