Good morning Fedi friends!
I'm writing a guide about how to install the #YunoHost self-hosting system... from the POV of a newbie.
I did so last December and it was the most empowering thing. I'm now the admin of my own GoToSocial, Pixelfed, PeerTube and NextCloud instances.
I'd love your input: which app should I feature / install in my guide?
@_elena Could you please also mention how to move an existing Mastodon-server to yunohost? That‘s also a real challenge!

@kdsz_bayern I suppose that if you wanted to move your Mastodon account from an instance where it's hosted (by someone else) to your own self-hosted instance powered by YunoHost, you'd have to follow the usual steps...
I would:
1) buy a VPS
2) install YunoHost
3) associate your desired domain name to it
4) install Mastodon
5) start the move process... -

@_elena Most people need data sharing and backups and relief from subscription services. So I voted for NextCloud.

@albertcardona NextCloud is AMAZING! It has fully replaced Dropbox, Google Docs and WeTransfer for me 😊

@_elena did you maybe write a guide on what is there? What are the open source services worth hosting, how they differ and what are the benefits and drawbacks? Kind of a map for a new comers to orientat them selves?

@lv_426_survivor I'm writing a guide now... but it's impossible to cover all apps offered by YunoHost because they're in the hundreds.
I'm making the case for digital sovereignty and doing an overview of what the process is like because it's truly accessible to all... you don't need to be a dev to get into it

@_elena I voted for NextCloud (even though I work with Mastodon!) it has so much more utility for families. Besides, for novices, it's so much better for them to join a bigger instance.

@_elena @albertcardona a thought for structuring the guide, a meta guide: build your digital sovereignty.
1. custom domain
2. domain email
3. personal site
4. data sync. files, contacts, bookmarks, ...
5. data sharing
6. social: blog, micro-blog, ...a work through this and have total ownership of your digital life. or take the bits you want

@scottjenson thanks Scott!
Indeed... I can self-host now but I'm still keeping my main Fediverse profile on mastodon.social (and I'm donating to it monthly) for its reliability and solidity.
Self-hosting NextCloud has been a total game-changer, as it has come to replace Dropbox, Google Docs, Google Drive and WeTransfer for me 😊

@_elena I'd love a NextCloud one as I'm using it but hosted by LibreCloud I think. I'd love to self host that for a variety of reasons, especially privacy.

@alexisbushnell it looks like you may get your wish Alexis! (it's the most popular choice so far...)

@_elena @albertcardona and once you've written the guide maybe you can give it to the EU. they seem to have some trouble understanding

@usul agree with you - I should have probably included Pixelfed (since I'm self-hosting it). Bookwyrm I want to try... but don't feel comfortable including something I'm not using. Ditto for Pleroma

@_elena didn't know #YunoHost, nice perhaps for a #HomeLab too
Decentralized server aimed at non-techies
