Currently writing a self-hosting guide for newbies, showing off the beauty and ease of #YunoHost.

Part 1 was really popular - beyond my expectations - with 1500+ unique visitors. Thank you!

For reference:

Part 2 (step-by-step installation and post-installation) will be super visual. I tried to keep things simple but I still have 27 - yes TWENTY-SEVEN - screenshots. I'll keep #AltText relevant to each step on a need to know basis or else it will turn into a novel... and will be too overwhelming for people using screen readers.

Aiming to get it published by Wednesday AKA the one year anniversary of the start of my own self-hosting adventures with YunoHost.

This is the guide I wish I had had back in the day... I would have started A LOT sooner. I'm basically writing it to my old self, hoping it will be useful for others 🥹

PSA: if you're using YunoHost please consider donating to them, to keep the project healthy and long-lasting (it's run by a team of volunteers, maintaining hundreds of apps): https://donate.yunohost.org

Hi Elena. This is just what I need. Its great you are sharing it. Thanks. But I'm confused. I really need an overview diagram. I don't know what a VPS is. Is that instead of your own hardware? Where does YunoHost fit in? Where do applications go? I'm lost already.
It'd be great if you could update your post with a diagram to help all us visual graphical people.

@ianp5a it's a virtual private server... a virtual machine you rent who is running YunoHost: https://doc.yunohost.org/en/admin/get_started/methods/
