Good morning Fedi friends!
Monday mornings mean: my weekly ritual of manually backing up my #YunoHost installation (my VPS does automatic daily backups of the whole VPS, but I say: better safe than sorry).
This latest backup is pretty big, because of my increased use of #NextCloud. So in reverse order, from biggest to smallest we have:
1) #GoToSocial : 5.8 GB
2) #PeerTube : 4.3 GB
3) #NextCloud: 3.7 GB
4) #Pixelfed : 1.6 GB
5) #LinkStack : 92 MB
6) #Fail2Ban : 362kb
Happy #selfhosting everyone! And in case you missed it, my self-hosting guide for newbies via YunoHost is available here: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-newbies-guide-to-self-hosting-with-yunohost/ (with 4 articles so far).
Have a great week everyone!

Backing up things is pretty standard / low stakes.
But I just noticed that virtually ALL the apps on my #YunoHost system have available updates, which means... the hair-raising, palpitations-inducing, let's say a little prayer practice of creating a snapshot of my VPS (easy peasy) and clicking on "Upgrade" by order of importance.
#Fail2Ban and #LinkStack were pretty low stakes - done, no sweat. Plus I love how YunoHost creates backups before upgrading, so you can always revert back if something goes wrong.
Anyway, Pixelfed now and then my sacred triad of GoToSocial, NextCloud and PeerTube.
Wish me luck! 🥵
EDIT: newbie me is more advanced than even I would think so... I'm checking out GitHub's YunoHost page for each app I want to upgrade. Apparently the Pixelfed package has issues so I'm not touching that 😅

Now checking out the other apps...

Sooooo my recent mishaps with server administration are making me speed up my plans of shifting towards community-owned and -maintained hosting.
Ever since my conversation with @boris@cosocial.ca almost one year ago, I took his quote “self-hosting is selfish” as a mantra. It’s time to act accordingly.
Together with @Holly@pan.rent and @youjungnoh@pan.rent, we are putting together a group of tech-savy people who want to, respectively:
Learn more about system administrationGet their hands dirty while doing soMaintain our own shared serverHost their own things (be them websites, projects, or services) together with comrades instead of individual infrastructure.
There are many super cool collectives that are doing this already, and we intend to draw inspiration from their work and their documentation, but we really want to do this together!
Who wants to join? Please, do reach out! I already spun up a small-ish VPS that is now hosting all my static websites. If you’d like to get involved, reach out and I would be happy to give you SSH access 🌻
We would also be very grateful if more experienced sysAds want to help us out by hosting workshops or brief classes.
We intend to meet for the first time in South Holland (but maybe virtually too) sometime during the first two weeks of March.
Next steps:
Find a name for this group/server/missionPlan a series of (free, open) intro lessons with guestsStart hosting some thingsMigrate things I am already hosting with YunoHost in our community serverMigrate to a physical device in a home of ours?
EDIT: I forgot to add this, but it goes without saying that ours would be a queer and transfeminist server

Les utilisateurices de Yunohost, c’est l’heure de mettre à jour le système!
EDIT 2: une nouvelle faille PHP a été détectée. Je vous encourage à couper tous les services qui s’appelle php-quelquechose dans l’interface de Yunohost.

Si l’une d’elle affiche "hello", il vous reste des mises-à-jour à effectuer!

And sorry for repeating myself, but the path to digital independence and empowerment is easier than you thought.
My self-hosted #NextCloud has fully replaced WeTransfer, Google Drive and Dropbox for me... and it's only the tip of the iceberg.
I hope this visual guide will help fellow newbies.

Ok, vorrei provare a mettere su un server con #yunohost, per gestire una serie di servizi utili ad un piccolo collettivo di provincia (wiki interno, storage condoviso, blog e qualche altra cosina).
Cerco un servizio di hosting adatto (economico, in italia, trasparente, magari anche politicamente affine).Suggerimenti?

@_elena@mastodon.social So what will Year 5 look like?
I am curious about #yunohost - have not used it before why do you love it so much?
Also very much into self-hosting all the things, including nextcloud! Recently tried peertube and really find it promising. Totally worth switching to.
Hmm, giving some consideration to switching over to #GoToSocial, and installing it bare metal on my VPS. At the moment this #Mastodon server runs via #Yunohost and the biggest pain in the ass is waiting weeks for them (Yunohost) to update the installers after a major Mastodon upgrade.
GTS appears to be a single binary, a database file and a YAML config file, running via one systemd service.
That's a lot less complex than Mastodon, with its multiple processes and connections.
Not to mention the resource usage.
After 10 months of operation, the database on this Masto instance fluctuates between 17Gb and 25Gb. Most of which is account data.
The same instance running under GTS as far as I can tell would be sitting at about 3gb at this point.
Memory and CPU usage would see similar reductions, which would be beneficial come renewal time and potential massive cost increases...
The main thing holding me back is the ability to use Quote Posts. I know it's coming in GTS, but there's no timescale AFAIK.
I know I originally had GTS installed prior to switching to Mastodon, but in hindsight I maybe should've stuck with GTS. I mean, Masto's been fine, but perhaps going lower resource would be better longer-term.
No rush to decide, as my vps is still 14 months from renewal, but definitely something to consider.
omfg.. My #Yunohost install just deleted my Ghost blog on stux.me including backups after a failed install and restore
I can't even.. Why would it delete the backup
Gotta think about a way of restoring it somehow..

It's very satisfying being able to install my own home server with cloud for family and my own fediverse instance @stratos. Thank you @yunohost@toot.aquilenet.fr @nextcloud@mastodon.xyz @grunfink for making it possible!

Hmmm... it looks like @Stuxhost@mstdn.social may fit the bill. https://Stuxhost.com says they're based in the Netherlands 👍 and that you can choose servers in Germany / Finland 👍 and @stux@mstdn.social is here on the Fedi 👍 . (Sidenote, when I've talked to Stux, they've been lovely 👍 👍 )
The only thing I'm wondering about is if there's any easy way to install / upgrade / maintain Mastodon? 🤔 If I need to I can install Yunohost like on my other servers, but I'd really like to avoid having to maintain yet another server for a service that sounds trickier than most to maintain...

Finally! I repurposed an old ThinkPad T400 as a YunoHost server for personal use. I don't have any apps installed yet, but I'm planning on installing GoToSocial and Nextcloud.
Thanks @_elena@mastodon.social for the awesome blog articles describing how to install YunoHost!

Good morning Fedi friends,
I have been feeling a rising anxiety over the state of the open web and the fediverse - after seeing efforts by politicians all over the world (in Europe too!) to introduce age verification laws for social media.
My way of coping?
Teaching people how to self-host their own Fediverse profile (using the superb #GoToSocial) via #YunoHost.

Basically a visual guide showing how to install #GoToSocial via #YunoHost and set it up with some basic security.
⏱️ From start to finish, it should take about 25-30 minutes.
It's my act of resistance against tech bros... I love the idea of teaching people how to self-host their own social media instance, connected to the fediverse ✌️❤️
Thank you @yunohost@toot.aquilenet.fr and @gotosocial@gts.superseriousbusiness.org for empowering us all!

Wenn ein Dienst auf meinem #yunohost Server (in dem Fall jellyfin) nicht länger als 1 Minute läuft, kann ich hier was einstellen, damit ich benachrichtigt werde?
Also eine Art watchdog der mich informiert, wenn der Dienst nicht mehr akurat funktioniert?
Ich wäre sehr erfreut, denn zuletzt kam ich zweimal zu spät drauf, dass da was hakte und die backups waren schon wieder gelöscht, weil ich sie nach 30 Tagen automatisiert gelöscht habe...
Today, I updated the documentation for installing a relay (Docker, manual, automatic script).
Behind the scenes, I reproduced each installation to adapt and fix the doc.
Yes, the official #HolosSocial relay is coming to production after a long 10 months of work. The #YunoHost package will come next.
Around 800 users on a relay is a small number of GB, everything is optimised, and it can run on a small VPS.
I am quite proud of this work. Thank you for making it possible with your support.
Does anyone know if #yunohost requires port 25 to be open for it to work? Like if you would install Friendica or GoToSocial and want admin mails/notification to be sent from the system?
@elena@aseachange.com Do you know?
RE: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/116929510685583647
Installed #yunohost yesterday on my Proxmox home server to fiddle around and was about to deploy #GoToSocial. But this "Danger" Box in the docs, saying the domain will be taken forever by this instance of GTS scares me. Or is this the case for every #ActivityPub Server anyway?
I thought, only the full handle like "@user@social.domain.net" can be problematic when being refused because of caching and generated keys. Any experience with that? https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/v0.22.0/getting_started/

Quoting
Working on a brand new post for my series "a newbie's guide to self-hosting with #YunoHost" - showing people how to set up their own #GoToSocial microblogging instance.
Sorry it's been taking a while: I started over when I realized most people use subdomains... and I'm doing a thorough step-by-step explainer that any newbie could follow - I hope 😅
