@stefano Just checked where I've got the original rc scripts from, and that was actually your blog post 🙂 In my initial post, I attributed you and put a link to your website https://blog.hofstede.it/migrating-burningboardnet-mastodon-instance-to-a-multi-jail-freebsd-setup/During the weekend, I'll update my post to reflect the current optimizations.

@c_merriweather @NormanDunbar @terminaltilt the only thing, I've read that Tuta uses Amazon for dns (I've not looked into it any further, so I don't know if it's true o it it was true but no more o whatever)@Tutanota

Domenica del #selfhosting. Ho chiesto di abilitare l'invio mail per i miei due progettini:1. https://newsletter.thegui.eu/: il mio tentativo di newsletter self hostata. La cosa buffa è che se vi iscrivete arriva un 500 perché senza SES abilitato non riesco a mandare la mail di conferma2. https://dojo.thegui.eu/: timido inizio di bookwyrm per la chitarra. Qui la wishlist funziona.Chissà come andrà a finire.#fingerscrossed

#SelfHosting week 1, phase 4. FINALLY.The main architecture is up and running now. Lemmy, WriteFreely, Castopod, today I'll get WordPress multisite running; my current site on shared hosting, runs a singular website where I created multilingual through "FullSiteEditing" WordPress feature; but it's quite difficult to maintain in long-term so 2 sites with 2 languages will make it better.Now I have upgraded my hosting plan to Hostinger kvm2, and associated my VPS to the huge lifetime 10TB cloud I have, for podcasts. PCloud, through rclone. Next phase will be WordPress, then maybe to point various services to the right domain (plusbrothers.net and not .online). Most passages have been done via command line, and to find the right commands I've used google gemini. Unfortunately for some features, American (big) tech has still been useful. #accessibility #selfhost #activitypub #blog #multilingual #blind #WordPress

@elettrona @fsfe @EUCommission I'm so so sorry Elena for all the trouble you went through.slightly off topic but: I never set up reverse DNS for my instance because I don't need to send / receive email from it. in case you still have Hostinger and want to give it a second go.But I completely understand your frustration and if you want to abandon this. Big hug

@filobus In bocca al lupo!

#SelfHosting week 0, phase 1B: DNS records settings. Performed @_elena 's instructions on her "self hosting for newbies" part 2. Except for the post-install as I run it through terminal and not through web UI. For an ms-dos-born it's easier to perform a simple command such as "yunohost tools postinstall" rather than go to web, then type, then search for the various UI elements. Everything went smooth, except for letsencrypt at first. But in the end it seems to have worked. It got stuck because hostinger panel didn't get one suggested parameter, the numeric 3600, every record has a parameter which is 3, 4 or 5 numbers.Created the domain and subdomain to point it to yunohost admin interface, and then obstacle came.Opening browser to subdomain, just returns "connection timed out".Checked for nginx parameters through yunohost terminal, using the desired Sudo commands.Then, "sudo yunohost diagnosis run""sudo yunohost diagnosis show --issues --human-readable"and I got explanation on reverse dns which was wrong.After that, I searched on the web (and on AI, I admit) the position on hostinger panel to set them, and I found "set tpr record"placed the desired domain name.And now it's time to wait for propagation. But what about the "connected timeout", in the article posted in blog.elenarossini.com no such obstacle was mentioned.I'm back to my 20s when I spent the night (it's almost 4 in the morning), learning commands.Last but not least, accessibility issue: I'm using an app called WebSSH pro, downloaded on app store. Set it up, and VoiceOver for iOS does not read the keys I press on keyboard so I'm very slow to type commands there. Pc is better. In a few hours I'll try hostinger's terminal.UPDATE: I have just found I set one DNS wrong, now I'll wait for it to propagate. Next update in some hours. I placed a useless number. Such as 72.162 (wrong) instead of 72.62 (right). Like when you start developing on your own and everything crashes due to a missing semicolumn in a string of code. #accessibility #yunohost #selfhost #blind

@elettrona io mi sono fatto male e ho questa mia istanza in self hosting su un Thin Client Dell Wyse 5010, proprio self nel senso che è da due anni acceso qui di fianco alla mia scrivania 🙂 con Yunohost @localhost @_elena

Commitin programming crimes }:->Few weeks ago I seriously looked to the mine OpenHAB installation and asked a question for myself: "Am I really need it?" Look, I have a few ZigBee devices, which are connected to the my server with the help of ZigBee2MQTT. Thusly, all necessary values and knobs are accessible through the MQTT topics.And I'm using the OpenHAB (big Java application which eats ton's of RAM and constantly swapping) just to:1) Read values from MQTT topic2) Read weather forecast from Open-Meteo through simple REST API endpoints3) Store all the data to the PostgreSQL DB.4) Display these data in the nice Web page which works only in browsers with JS engine.So, basically, I trade tons of RAM and processing power just for a nice web-page with few indicators. While retrieving data from my ZigBee devices processed by the another service.After that thought, I started to think about replacing this monster with small hand-written program, which will not eat 700 MB of RAM. Just Nginx, small FastCGI script on C, which will read values from DB and display them on the simple HTML page. And another small daemon (also written in C) which will take data from MQTT topic (and from REST API of Open-Meteo) and will write them to the DB. And possibly some PGSQL procedures to analyze these data.At least I'll have fun #programming #C #smarthome #selfhosting

@silhouette @stereo @gotosocial congrats as well! 🥳​

@luca in teoria con le cache delle copertine dovrebbe stare, ma forse comunque controlla se il file è cambiato? Boh.

Davvero con VPS e 4GB di RAM si tira su un'istanza di Mastodon?Sto cercando di avere dei termini di paragone per capirci qualcosa lato #selfhosting. https://www.cybertome.it/posts/costruisciti-il-tuo-server-mastodon/#mastoaiuto

@yunohost -- If you were wondering why I asked!

@stereo thank you Ralf! I wish I (a) spoke German (b) could have attended one of your workshops. Thank you for all your FOSS and digital literacy advocacy 🙏​ and of course for your help and encouragement with my experimentations ☺️​

@_elena @teapot_ben Matomo is really powerful, yet easy to use, I have been using it since it was called Piwik which was a long time ago. Definitely recommended

@_elena Dès que j'ai un peu de temps, je vais configurer ça manuellement, mais je vais devoir bien reviser toute la documentation de Yunohost (et de la tienne).(Je l'avais déjà fait pour un Wordpress il y a deux ou trois ans et il me semble que ça avait été plutôt simple.)

@_elena still no simple FTP server that doesn't require 287302723 different config files with 0xDEADBEEF command line options.Honestly if a ftp server is more complicated than `ftpserver $HOME --write --read` then it is a failed one.

@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/
