Good morning Fedi friends!
I've just published the third installment in my blog series about self-hosting with #YunoHost, showing (with plenty of screenshots and detailed explanations) how to install #NextCloud.
I'm now on high alert expecting any minute a reply by a sysadmin with a stern lecture about something I wrote 😅
Instead of signing off every blog post with the words "written by a human" I should maybe have instead: "with the greatest respect to sysadmins - I admire you tremendously"

Update:
I sent the toot with a link to my self-hosting guide (installing NextCloud via YunoHost) three hours ago… and I haven’t received any scoldings / complaints by sysadmins yet (about potentially idiotic things I could have written). I consider my morning a success 🤪

@elena It’s friday, every SysAdmin is really busy preventing Devs from putting new thing in production before leaving for the week end.

@elena@aseachange.com btw I've recently added [anubis](anubis.techaro.lol) in front of my nextcloud instance. Did you try it ?

@elena Joke aside, I’ve read about half of it and see nothing to compjain about as a SysAdmin ;)
One thing that could make it even better: I’m a huge fan of documentations that explain why before how. I think it would be a great addition if you could add 2 or 3 lines at the beginning of each steps to tell your reader why she’ll have to follow those steps.
See for example step 1, you dive into the how right from the start and it’s only after 5 sub-steps and 5 corresponding screen captures that you explicit the why «When the process completes, your new subdomain - which you will use for NextCloud - should appear in your "Domains" list.»
It would benefit the reader to know why she clicks and where it goes, before actually starting. Also, it helps planning ahead: «should I start now if I can’t even decide for a subdomain? (because I want to talk about it with family, because I want to sleep on it, whatever)».Great job anyway, it’s great and helpful as it is.

@patpro thank you for the note ! Super helpful and I wish I had thought of it before, sigh. I will definitely keep this in mind for future tutorials
