Mache heute ein bisschen #DiDay... Wechsel von einem Google Workspace Account auf #Nextcloud bzw. #selfhosting
Aber puh... einfach ist anders. Wenn man diverse Features gewohnt ist (bspw. Online-Terminbuchung), dann treffe ich an so vielen Stellen auf Hickups...
Eigentlich wollte ich "einfach" zu @mailbox_org wechseln. Aber so einfach ist es dann leider doch nicht, unter anderem wegen fehlernder Features. Und auf Nextcloud ist dann was schwer hin zu bekommen, was gut auf mailbox.org funktioniert (naja zumindest einigermaßen), bspw. Video Calls.
Fazit: Da ist noch viel Luft nach oben in der europäischen Landschaft der Cloud-Angebote...

Legends of Mastodon/whatevs,
seeking a host for my own website, to possibly host my own mastodon instance, and heck knows what else. I used to use wordpress, thinking of going ghost.
Curious about my options, thinking of going with limitless:

Advice? Recommendations? I'm all ears. I'm in Australia, but very cool with being hosted o/s somewhere...

fyi @decryption @shlee because you know re: such things :)
If you want to use #Ghost and you want to support a European small business hosting service that hosts Ghost and has excellent support, Magic Pages has launched a new lifetime hosting plan. For $460 (EUR 390) you get a Ghost site hosted forever.
They’re an Austrian business using German servers (Hetzner).
They also have a monthly plan and an enterprise plan.

Y’all. I want to explore Netlify alternatives. I don’t deploy apps there, only websites. I love being able to push to GIT repos and have them publish to my server, so I want wanna give that up.
Any solid recommendations?
I’m looking for a commercial Mastodon hosting solution for a small organization… I know of @mastohost but are there others out there worth looking at?
#RAMageddon is taking its toll... It comes as no surprise that hetzner@mastodon.hetzner.social has now also had to increase its prices by more than 30%. I'm afraid we'll also have to adjust our prices for Beach, as this is an increase we simply can't offset ourselves.
As great as all these AI agents are, the extremely high expectations placed on corporations and the immense demand for hardware are unfortunately overriding quite some market mechanisms.
Hey if anyone is interested we setup instances for Mastodon, Pixelfed, Friendica, Peertube, Nextcloud and more, See - webape.site/
We do so for a cost so we can afford to also make the many trade-free services and projects we have. See tromsite.com/
If you are interested or may want to help, you can also share this. We setup a separate VPS for each instance and provide updates, support, or custom requests as much as we can, for each instance. Plus an email server for each of them.

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 almost one year ago, I took his quote “self-hosting is selfish” as a mantra. It’s time to act accordingly.
Together with @Holly and @youjungnoh, we are putting together a group of tech-savy people who want to, respectively:
Learn more about system administration
Get their hands dirty while doing so
Maintain our own shared server
Host 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/mission
Plan a series of (free, open) intro lessons with guests
Start hosting some things
Migrate things I am already hosting with YunoHost in our community server
Migrate 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

I already wrote about caching here.
Now I extended what I cache a bit.
This was because after enabling the option to proxy media, I've seen access to the file paths /x/ and /y/ in addition to the path were snac stores the media that I include in my own posts ( /s/ ).
There are two locations to proxy media, depending if you requests the media via the mastodon api or via the web. (/x/ and /y/), oh and I added the nodeinfo2.0 path too, because I've noticed it was queried all the time by a lot of instances and it gives me pleasure to see something cached handed out in the access logs. 🙂 (I guess it is actually irrelevant for the system resources)
This is the updated setup:
Enable the relevant modules:
a2enmod expires cache cache_disk
Be sure "htcacheclean" is running to clean up the old disk cache. (under debian see /etc/default/apache-htcacheclean or else the relevant systemd service or whatever)
Then add this to the httpd Virtualhost config:
<LocationMatch "^/social/[^/]+/[xys]/|^/social/nodeinfo_2_0">
CacheEnable disk
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=86400, public" "expr=%{REQUEST_STATUS} == 200"
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 86400 seconds"
</LocationMatch>
Further reading and all options are explained under https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/caching.html (and ff)
The Header that I set here, on the condition of Status code 200, is needed for the path /y/, because snac set no-cache on that location and mod_expires will honor that if we don't override it. I set it to the same Cache-Control value as mod_expires would. (I use mod_expires because it will additionally calculate the date and put that in the expires header. (hence the name I guess 😀 )

How to install Piefed using Docker Compose? I gave up installing Lemmy and Mbin. Why, after I install, is it always federation problems? Posts on original instances showed the original upvote count, but my instance showed only 1 upvote and "subscription pending" forever.

Beim #diday gestern haben wir darauf hingewiesen, dass die Befreiung von BigTech nur funktioniert, wenn man die Infrastruktur mitdenkt und die Menschen, die sie am Laufen halten.
Wir machen es wie eine Wohnungsgenossenschaft, in der Menschen gemeinsam Häuser und Wohnungen bauen, um darin so zu leben, wie sie es wollen.
Wenn ihr Vorschläge habt, worüber wir beim nächsten Digital Independence Day reden sollen, dann schreibt uns.
Bin auf der Suche nach einem passenden Hosting-Anbieter für einen Verein. Momentan sind wir bei @team, allerdings sind dort einige Dinge nicht so, wie wir uns das vorstellen.
Was wir brauchen:
- Webhosting (kein vServer, Root Server o. ä.)
- SSH-Zugang (root optional)
- Nextcloud (mit Zugriff auf occ, Portfreigaben für Talk/Spreed, Mail Client und der Möglichkeit, einen bestehenden Collabora Office Server anzubinden)
- Wordpress Hosting (inkl. Zugriff auf wp-cli)
- PHP mit entsprechend passendem Memory Limit
- Mailboxen und Mailinglisten mit self-service opt-in/out
- regelmäßige Backups
- Idealerweise ein Anbieter aus Baden(-Württemberg)
- hazzle-free DS-GVO Konformität
Probleme machen ja oft exotische Ports.
@wir ist glaube ich bei NetCup, wie sind eure Erfahrungen? Habe noch @hallo im Auge, von denen ich großer Fan bin, aber nicht weiß, ob das für den Verein passt.
A reminder: Google is absolutely notorious for freezing accounts with zero warning, zero explanation and zero recourse. Even if you are paying them.
