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 ?

@nathan ooooh amazing! And no, I haven't tried it yet... looking into it now

@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

@elena@aseachange.com sorry for changing your afternoon plans 😅
I can share my config rules to not break mobile apps if you need to, when you have it ready -

@elena @patpro I miss the good old days where howtos were commonly written. Personally, I love the format and clarity of the guide... for a "newbie guide", it is pretty high standard.
I would suggest a future update with some security tips: like adding fail2ban to your web server configuration (and lookups with 400 error codes). If you need the scripts and the why-hows, feel free to drop a line: happy to share.

@en3py @patpro thank you Sebastian. I will write about security in the next installment. As a heads-up, upon installation, YunoHost automatically sets up Fail2Ban in the background and removes root access!
One time I couldn't figure out how I couldn't get onto a test VPS with Terminal... I reset/changed passwords 3 times... and then I remembered YunoHost disables that functionality to strengthen security right off the bat

Hallo! Gerne helfen wir Ihnen weiter. Dazu müssen Sie einen kleinen HTML-Code zu Ihrer Website hinzufügen. So geht's:
1. Fügen Sie einen Link zu Ihrem Mastodon-Profil auf Ihrer Website ein. Achten Sie darauf, dass der Link rel="me" enthält. Beispiel:
<a rel="me" href="https://hachyderm.io/@haubles"></a>2. Gehen Sie zu „Einstellungen“ > „Öffentliches Profil“ und geben Sie die URL Ihrer Website in eines der vier Profilfelder ein. Speichern Sie die Änderungen.
Fertig! Lassen Sie mich wissen, wenn ich Ihnen noch weiterhelfen kann.

@Madmonkey al piacere che si prova nel guardare quanto è cresciuto il proprio conto corrente da quando hai venduto l'anima a Bezos 🤣

@pfefferle I haven’t had time to check that issue yet. However, your changes look very good 🤩.
I’ll test it locally and, if everything works, I’ll merge it later today.Thanks a lot!

@ro @Majden888 @anominominominous si ma il problema di find è che per fare funzionare la sanità servono strutture e soprattutto personale, e invece ci siamo beccati decenni di tagli da ambo i lati in nome dell'efficienza. Ma la gente non se ne rende conto o non se ne vuole rendere conto.

Aldila del giardino di casa. Venezuela e Groenlandia – politiche di aggressione USA e interessi del capitale
@anarchia
Pare opportuno che una riflessione sui fatti del Venezuela debba andare ben oltre la classica visione del “giardino di casa” che per più un secolo ha ben dimostrato la natura degli interessi del capitalismo

@artemis @afewbugs I've done a couple of faux pas here when interacting with some interesting profiles. Some of them have given me the possibility to clarify my intentions, and I'll be always grateful for that. The ones that have just gone and blocked me … turns out they weren't particularly nice anyway.
