Hey all / hej allihoppa!

Vi i kamratdataföreningen köpte en 1U server som vi vill använda för att hosta våra tjänster (t.ex. vår mastodon instans social.spejset.org/) för allmän njut. Vi letar efter ett ställe i Stockholm att ställa den. Vi är en ideell förening och letar efter gratis eller billigt. Har ni tips för oss? Kanske har du ett serverrum på jobbet där man kan tänka hosta vårt server? Eller kanske jobbar du för ett hostingföretag som kan tänka hjälpa oss? Hör av dig!

We in the comrade data association Konstellationen bought a 1U server that we want to use to host our services (for example our mastodon instance social.spejset.org/) for the greater good. We're looking for a place in Stockholm to rackmount the thing and connect it to the internet. We're a non-profit and are looking for free or cheap. Do you have tips? Maybe you have a server room at work that you can think offering a unit in, or perhaps you're working at a hosting company that might consider helping us out? Let us know!

I'm happy to see mkdocs will live on as "ProperDocs". I've set up several mkdocs wikis in the past.

How does one audit a home network reasonably? Thinking of setting up some self hosted stuff that may involve internet ingress.
I can DMZ a machine, but it's an i-dont-know-what-i-dont-know situation. Are firewall rules enough? How much should I actually be worrying about someone getting access to my local network segments?

Have any self-hosters set up a local cache/mirror of system packages, python packages, container images, and whatever else you might download?

Never update your home server when you’re away.

So, as I've mentioned, I got a spare old #desktop computer and my friend has suggested to turn it into a #server . Which is cool and all that - but for what reason? Just because I can didn't seem to be a good reason for me...however, I've kinda realized I can do a couple things at once.
By making a server (based on #debian13 netinstall) and moving my webpage from shared hosting and Wordpress to #selfhosting and #ghostblog I can actually claim some #digitalfreedom .
And then it's hit me.
You know the meme "split,bro?" ?
If you are into the #underground music scene, especially in the #gorenoise #goregrind #punk #dbeat #grindcore and probably also some other genres, you might be familiar with it.
So to learn something useful, I've decided to create Split, Bro? app. Small, self-hosted, dedicated to help those unknown, underground bands and projects to find their split partners for joint releases.
And although it will need some more polishing and some features are #wip , I am quite happy with the outcome!!!
If you want to have a look:

and don't forget to give me a feedback here! Much appreciated!

Es ist mal wieder #diday
Im letzten Monat hatte ich selber gar nichts vorbereitet.
Dafür habe ich mir heute mal wieder Gedanken gemacht weitere #bigtech bye bye zu sagen.

Ich habe mir 3 mehr oder weniger feature complete #opensource alternativen zu #wetransfer angeschaut und im #homelab getestet.

so i somehow managed to change the permission of the root folder of my main storage raid thing with a unpriviliged account which caused all services depending on it to be unavailible. cool

Wenn man sich größtenteils nur mit US-Alternativen, digitaler Unabhängigkeit, SelfHosting usw. auseinandersetzt und dann auf Menschen trifft, die den ganzen Sinn dahinter nicht verstehen (wollen)... das ist schon schwer.

Spätestens wenn dann aber die wiederholte Frage auftaucht, warum man nicht bei "renommierten Anbietern" (Facebook und Co.) bleibt und sämtliche Erklärungsversuche als "Nerdkram" oder "Spinnerei" abgestempelt werden bin ich ja thematisch sowas von raus... 😂 Aber: Ich versuche niemanden, zu seinem Glück zu überreden!

Deswegen: Aufklärung ist weiterhin wichtig, viele Menschen haben immer noch nicht verstanden, warum der heutige DiDay so wichtig ist.

Noch wichtiger: Man muss nicht auf den nächsten DiDay warten, sondern kann jederzeit loslegen! Interessierte sollten in den für sie vertretbaren Schritten und Tempo ihren Wunsch nach Alternativen umsetzen können, man kann dabei beratend unterstützen, sollte aber niemals jemanden dazu überreden.

Any recommendation for #SelfHosting a web app, useable on mobile as well as desktop for two people to collaborate making notes with basic WYSIWYG text formatting?

The purpose is to help us maintain notes for #renovation and #refurbishment of our home. We're mostly apart so I think it would help being able to edit a list of documents. Say one per room, and for things like lighting, heating, #HomeAutomation etc.

Anyone done this?

Setting up a fresh instance of Mediawiki (1.45.3) for the first time in like... a decade?

OMG, I've been dragging a lot of cruft in extensions and whatnot that ships directly with Mediawiki nowadays. I desperately need to redo/re-baseline my mediawiki site to streamline it.

👩‍💻​ My So Called Sudo Life - day 500: still a newbie edition 🆕​

Dear Fedi friends,

Today marks the 500th day of my self-hosting adventures and I'm celebrating it with... a slice of humble pie:

Today in #selfhosting fun. I have a mail server that's been in place for years and hasn't had any noticable problems, but today I sent the same email from two different addresses to hotmail. Both had SPF, DKIM, DMARC and the same outbound IP address. One was delivered and one went to junk. Headers on the laytter show a spam score of 5 (which is sufficient for it to be diverted):

X-MS-Exchange-Organization-SCL: 5

I tried running it through https://github.com/mgeeky/decode-spam-headers but that didn't give any clues

If you're wanting to run your own Fediverse server but it seems too difficult, you might want to use a managed hosting service. They do all the technical stuff for you behind the scenes, as well as the actual hosting itself.

For example here are some Fediverse managed hosting providers:
- https://cloud68.co/managed-hosting.html
- https://fedihost.co
- https://masto.host
- https://weingaertner-it.de/?lang=en
- https://communick.com

Spent some time messing around with Headscale (self-hosted implementation of the Tailscale control server).

I couldn't get "raw" WireGuard to work the way I wanted through nested firewalls and CGNAT so this seems like a good way to blow all that complexity out of the water. Less complexity is usually more reliable.

Headscale is pretty neat. Painless install on Debian.

Configuring Linux and Windows nodes is simple too - at least from a basic connectivity point of view.

I need to figure out how I'm going to deal with multi-homed DNS scenarios for clients. Something with very little thought and work through yet. Ha.

Now the hard part, picking apart the security and edge cases to use it regularly.
