#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. -

The first time around, a year ago, I remember having to wait 2 full days for DNS records to correctly propagate... which seems ridiculously long now.
DNS was my only issue then, everything else went smoothly.
Now with a year of practice on my back, I can set things up in minutes.
The joke "it's always DNS" is pretty appropriate.
Super proud of you for doing all this!

Tutti i dubbi sulla riforma della Corte dei conti. L'analisi di @Vitalba

@gruber her filming of the ice agent, described as being run over and injured, calmly walking away is a simple image that gives lie to the administration narrative.

@latsss your assumptions were wrong, my point is that the force of people if well organized and focused, can be stronger than the force of weapons and wars. This is proven by history and social sciences. These are the ideas and ideals of people opposing Putin, Trump and ALL imperialist wars. You are not obliged to share these ideas, but you should at least respect ukrainian pacifists that were prosecuted by ukranian police for their beliefs AND targeted by russian army for their nationality.

@latsss so russian babies, decent people and families of dead soldiers are "evil enemies" that must be defeated and destroyed, but corrupt ukrainians profiting from war are "good friends" helping in the battle for liberty and justice. You are free to think like this and label people with their passport, but plee respect people thinking that the best way to freedom is to unite decent people against killers and criminals, just like MLK did in the US uniting decent black AND white people.

@gubi
But I assume your point was like "Ukrainian elites does not want to end the war, because that's how they make money" which IS a russian propaganda.I already said what happens when russian troops enter any city, and you are insisting on letting them in without fight, because they will do that anyway.
