Codeberg runs on Forgejo, which you can selfhost. (If you wanna try, let me know, I can create an account for you on https://forgejo.world/). It has (or will have) activitypub (federation).

Friendica is nice, I’d say try it (https://friendica.world/), but host it yourself if you like it. Personally I use Sharkey (https://sharkey.world/) which you can use like Mastodon, but with longer posts, and you can create pages (like this one https://ruud.social/@ruud/pages/postgresql ).

After trying it for a while, I’ve now bought a license. Really cool app.I only have an issue with scaling, but I created an issue in Github for that. Edit: nvm, I just failed in finding the right setting :-)

This looks very nice. A question, we use Teleport, and it does discover all hosts. But when connecting, I need to configure the username for every host separately. Can’t I set a default somewhere?

Nice work. Good thing we can have communities migrated now.

I stopped self-hosting stuff that’s for the family. In case something happens to me, no way my wife is going to keep this stuff running. And the kids are too young. So they would lose everything.

Family stuff goes in managed solutions (like Proton). Personal and public stuff is selfhosted.

Just something to consider.

For me the faster VACUUM would be reason enough to migrate :-) But I think overall it’s best to keep up-to-date and a few minutes downtime is worth it.

I’ll try to install the BookFace UI on friendica.world. Also I’ve started a Friendica manual at https://help.friendica.onl/ but it needs to get content.

How so?

This is for the Lemmy.World server (just the physical box, not the related VMs). Around 12TB last month.

Thanks, I sent them an e-mail.

We run the database and backend on a ax161 on Hetzner. The media is in Wasabi. The alt uis run on a cloud vps.

Ooh an iPhone that’s been locked for 50 years, I wonder what iPhones looked like in 1974!

I haven’t read this. But I know you can unlock your iPhone using your icloud account.

(Still, happy I switched to android this year)

It would have been better if they communicated to us first. I don’t disagree that user signups should be spread over instances. We now have a link to https://lemmyverse.net on our signup page so people can check if another instance would fit them better.

I have setup bskysocial.world to test that (there’s no web interface, just select this domain when logging in or signing up via the app or https://bsky.app)

Note: This is for testing only, I can’t promise it will remain running.

(I am @ruud.bskysocial.world)

I think the links and usernames are now OK.

Yeah that went wrong when copy/pasting the text, I’ll fix it.

I do host some stuff myself 😉 but there’s one thing to keep in mind.

Don’t self host stuff that your family still needs after you’re gone. Unless they are self host nerds like you. I stopped self hosting our mail and docs for example.

Would you agree?

I did register writefreely.world planning to host that one day, but I need some more selfhosting nerds to help out running all these instances :-) The foundation is now already running a few dozen Fedi instances :-D

Well thanks! ;-)

I don’t know yet. I think that’s something we need to discuss with the team and get input from the users. (Yes, I did register sublinks.world :-) )
