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.
High Memory Usage in Proxmox
I have only one vm and I just ran "htop" in it. It's using less than 3 GB RAM. But proxmox shows 11 GB. Why?
@spinglass nodds in agreement
Whilst I use #GitHub for @OS1337, I don't use #GithubActions and it can be all done completely airgapped (merely depending on your ability to get sources & toolchain on your device and follow documentation.
But then again I'm not deploying some 3rd tier esolang.
@thenewoil The evidence against @protonprivacy seems to just keep mounting. At this point, anyone who is/was interested in Proton should really just be looking at @Tutanota or selfhosting imo.
For the record, I have no affiliation with Tuta, only with self hosting! 😉
#Selfhosting + #Activitypub / #Fediverse joining, will be a gamechanger for #Loops! ❤️
I iz much excite!
OpenBSD has been with me since my Air Force days. Now I’m back at it: hosting Hugo, @matrix, Shiori, Miniflux, and Relayd to tackle CGNAT. I will be documenting my setup for those wanting to do the same.

Big thanks to @OpenBSDAms for such a fantastic VPS setup. #OpenBSD #SelfHosting
Thanks to SeaweedFS, I've set up two replicas of the BSD Cafe's media. One is on a backup server (for disaster recovery purposes only, also containing the hourly zfs-autobackup backups), and the other is on a Raspberry Pi 4 running FreeBSD, which is one of my home backup servers - just one meter away from my desk.
I've also configured Nginx in a jail, so when I'm at home, the BSD Cafe's media is served directly from the local replica.
The performance is lightning fast.

It very much bothers me that #smartd didn't email me about this. The only reason I noticed it is because 'snapraid smart' output says that the chance of the drive failing in the next year is 99%. #SelfHosting
#selfhosting a #Ghost blog. Was going well using Docker Compose...
Until suddenly the main container cannot access the database one.
Anyone seen this error?

I'm considering setting up a home lab and truly self-hosting my own services. Unfortunately, my budget is limited to around $100-$150. I'm wondering if the HP Elitedesk mini PC is suitable for this purpose. I'm particularly looking at the HP Elitedesk 800 G3 or G5 models. Unfortunately, finding these devices in Dhaka has been challenging. So far, I've found a G3 on bikroy.com, but it comes with a 6th gen i7 CPU.
I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week unless I fall behind this schedule. 😉 So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPHP Vol. 46: "CJ | design & games" https://illuminesce.net/

This year’s final release will bring plenty of improvements!
🚀 Neu: Die deutschsprachige Homelab-Community ist da!
Ich habe heute bei #fedigroupssocial die Gruppe "Homelab Deutschland" ins Leben gerufen – DER Ort für alle, die ihre Server, NAS-Systeme und Self-Hosting-Projekte auf Deutsch diskutieren möchten.
💡 Du baust gerne an deiner eigenen IT-Infrastruktur?
💡 Tauschst dich gerne über Hardware, Software und Konfigurationen aus?
💡 Suchst Hilfe bei kniffligen Admin-Problemen?
Dann verlinke einfach @homelab_de in deinen Beiträgen und werde Teil einer wachsenden Community!
Gemeinsam machen wir das deutsche Homelab-Ökosystem stärker. 💪

We're always looking for new HashTags to push around the fediverse.
If you're not sure what #TagPush is, or why you might need it, read About TagPush
It's a fantastic way to ensure you see a wide spread of posts for a hashtag you enjoy. Also great for smaller instances where traffic is low.
So far we've pushed 18k posts to a wider audience in just over two weeks.
I had a realisation. All this self-hosting and pain and learning I put myself through:
It is the equivalent of someone who works in IT doing a bunch of stuff to their car themself, modifying things so they are just so, and doing their own maintenance.
I look at those people and go WHY! THERE ARE FAR BETTER USES OF YOUR TIME!
So yeah, presumably IT folks look at people like me battling after-hours with self-hosting things… basically like that.
What have been peep's experiences with building RAID arrays with 16TB, 20TB, etc. hard drives?
Too big and slow to pivot when a drive breaks? Lower reliability per spindle compared to smaller units? No differences of note?
Context: I have multiple 6 disk draid2 configs with 8TB spindles. The drives are aging out and could use an excuse to to reduce the number of spindles (less heat, noise, power, weight). Thinking about 3-4 way raidz[1|2] — or maybe something different.
Opinions and comments appreciated.

Making the most out of a small LLM
Yesterday i finally built my own #AI #server. I had a spare #Nvidia RTX 2070 with 8GB of #VRAM laying around and wanted to do this for a long time.
The problem is that most #LLMs need a lot of VRAM and i don't want to buy another #GPU just to host my own AI. Then i came across #gemma3 and #qwen3. Both of these are amazing #quantized models with stunning reasoning given that they need so less resources.
I chose huihui_ai/qwen3-abliterated:14b
since it supports #deepthinking, #toolcalling and is pretty unrestricted. After some testing i noticed that the 8b model performs even better than the 14b variant with drastically better performance. I can't make out any quality loss there to be honest. The 14b model sneaked in chinese characters into the response very often. The 8b model on the other hand doesn't.
Now i've got a very fast model with amazing reasoning (even in German) and tool calling support. The only thing left to improve is knowledge. #Firecrawl is a great tool for #webscraping and as soon as i implemented websearching, the setup was complete. At least i thought it was.
I want to make the most out of this LLM and therefore my next step is to implement a basic #webserver that exposes the same #API #endpoints as #ollama so that everywhere ollama is supported, i can point it to my python script instead. This way it feels like the model is way more capable than it actually is. I can use these advanced features everywhere without being bound to it's actual knowledge.
To improve this setup even more i will likely switch to a #mixture_of_experts architecture soon. This project is a lot of fun and i can't wait to integrate it into my homelab.

estoy manqueando intentando usar Coolify
contexto:
lxc debian en un proxmox. coolify instalado en 192.168.236.106
dns en 192.168.236.106
nginx proxy manager 192.168.236.101
la guia me dice que tengo que apuntar el dominio deseado para la instancia, en mi caso cicd.lab, a la ip verdadera (aunque tambien me dice que si lo apunto con reverse proxy, tambien le vale)
pero no me va ni de una forma, ni otra
antes tenia cicd.lab apuntando a npm, y un proxy host a 192.168.236.105:8000,
y para hacerlo mas "sencillo" he probado tambien ui.ci.cd apuntando a ese proxy host, y cicd.lab apuntando al host directamente (sin reverse proxy)
en ambos casos, me sale:
Validating DNS failed. Make sure you have added the DNS records correctly. https://cicd.lab->host.docker.internal Check this documentation for further help.
pero vease en mi primer pantallazo (cicd ES el nombre del contenedor de coolify), como el dns que usa, resuelve adecuadamente los dominios en cuestion
se agradece #boost
Erm, fellow Fediverse hackers: did I miss something?
I was just told that I should use SHA256
hashes, rather than SHA512
for MTA DANE (meaning: eg 3 1 1
rather than 3 1 2
).
Is this correct? I fail miserably at finding the corresponding RFCs.
Question for #GoToSocial folks: Is it possible to have different timeline layouts for different accounts on the same server?
I'm toying with the idea of having a predominantly text account on my GTS server with a text layout, and a second photos account with an image layout.
Is this possible?

#SelfHosting is seriously the final frontier for #FOSS / #DigitalSovereignty.
I'm not sure exactly which services you're trying to replace, but there are several options, but none totally brain-dead easy to set up and maintain.
The last time I tried self-hosting something, it was Immich via YUNOHOST a couple years back, and even with their relative user-friendliness, it was pretty complex, and I didn't stick with it.
I tried self-hosting NextCloud a couple years before that, and that was just horrible. XD
Question for those of you who are #selfhosting your #fediverse/ #activitypub instance with a very small number of users (max 5, let’s say): how many other instances are you federated with?
No reason, I’m just curious.
FYI my little #gotosocial instance that hosts @logistics
(with ~150 followers at present) is federated to ~6,500 other instances.
Please boost for visibility.
