selfhosted

I’ve added 2 external USBs of 2TB each to my Proxmox server and created a Resource Pool called USB_HDD containing both. I created an Ubuntu VM, but I can’t allocate all 4TB to it in one go - it only allows me to add each one as a separate SCSI device. When I start to install the OS it only allows the install onto one of the...

Hi guys! IN a bit of a rush, I installed a server on a place where I knew I’d have trouble reaching, as their router is behind CGNAT. I want now to start installing some VMs etc. At the moment all I have is a VM running Windows running Teamviewer for remote access (I know, I know). I have most of my services hosted on a local...

It looks like a lot of people want to self-host Lemmy. Would having an ActivityPub relay setup for those instances to subscribe to, instead of them all subscribing individually to the bigger instances be feasible? I’ve only seen discussions online about relays in regards to Mastodon. Has anyone attempted to set up one for use...

Heads up! Long post and lots of head bashing against the wall....

Is it possible to change lemmy’s domain after I have already started it once and produced some content? I am thinking of moving to a subdomain but I’m not sure if it will go smoothly

Hi everyone, first time posting since the Reddit went nuclear on sanity. With the advent of Lemmy, I finally got around to booting my home-server back up and stood up my own instance :)...

Title. Proxy managers and dashboards for me. The first one because “I’m not working on NASA lmao” and the second one, “It’s not minimal enough”.

While it was an interesting and sometimes confusing experience setting up and running my own Lemmy instance (looking at you, 20 character limit on federation URL), I think it's not worth it....

It was one of the easiest to setup and it works flawlessly. I’m a bit paranoid about losing my data even with the backups… Any recommendation?

My 2.5 year old loves watching classic Pokemon. I’ll be honest, so do I. But have you tried doing that? It’s fucking insane....

I have been using Nextcloud for over a year now. Started with it on Bare Metal, switched to the basic Docker Container and Collabora in its own Container. That was tricky to get running nicely. Now I have been using Nextcloud AIO for a couple of Months and am pretty happy. But it feels a little weird with all those Containers...

Hello! I am migrating some services from an old cloud instance to my homelab. The cloud instance was running NextCloud and as I don’t really need the entirety of NextCloud, I’m moving to individual services. It’s now time for me to move the most important thing from this NextCloud instance: my calendars and contacts....

Hello Selfhosted peeps!...

I’m in desparate need of setting up borgmatic for borg backup. I would like to encrypt my backups. (I suppose, an unencrypted backup is better than none in my case, so I should get it done today regardless.)...

So lemmiverse, my pxtl.ca domain has officially been booted off of Google Domains (welcome to the Google graveyard, Google Domains) and now has been moved into Squarespace, which is expensive....

I want a centralized way to manage keys and secrets. And some service users with little privileges over a subset of the secrets. Ideally, a service user only should be able to read its own subset of secrets. So, let’s say, if a container gets pwned it will only read its secrets and no more. It should be FOSS and self-hostable....

I’m in the process of planning upgrades for my server, and I’m trying to figure out the “best” drive configuration for Docker. My general understanding would be that the containers should be running from an SSD, and any storage (images, videos, documents) should use a volume on an HDD....

I’ve just started hosting stuff and i’ve been using frp’s stcp to make stuff accessible when i’m at school. I was wondering if I should bother setting up/switching over to wireguard which is apparently the way to go?

Hadn’t seen this here yet, a co-worker of mine sent it my way so I’m just spreading the word. Looks interesting, to say the least! Anyone tried this out or had any other experience with it yet?

Looking through the writefreely.org instances on their website, a lot of the links are dead or closed for registration. The one that is open and working is promoting a paid version. Is hosting a writefreely instance heavy on resources, attracting the wrong people or just not "cool" enough?

Hello everyone!...

I’ve tried a few jellyfin plugins that are supposed to sync metadata and thumbnails from tube archivist, but it’s just not working right....
