Admin of a lot of fediverse servers, among which the .world ones:
You can find me on these servers as @ruud
I receive a lot of messages, direct and mentions. I can’t reply to them all. If you have an issue, please e-mail at info@lemmy.world
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
I run a pixelfed and misskey on the same server, and used to run a mastodon besides that. No issues. (I use docker)
Ahh yes I meant as opposed to Twitter and Facebook. But I worded it badly 😁
For moderators surely Mastodon. For admins too… For users: that’s a taste-thing. I’m not a developer so can’t say…
Yeah somewhere between twitter and facebook clone, more like Mastodon. But open-source and federated, like Lemmy.
(I’ll add links / descriptions later)
I host the following fediverse stuff:
And these are other things I host:
Anything that the family uses. Because when I cease to exist, my wife isn’t gonna take over self-hosting! So e-mail, chat, documents etc.
Hi, I think donations will be the way also in the future. Anything non voluntary wouldn’t work because people will just move to other servers that are free. And so far I’ve seen there’s more than enough willingness to donate.
Thank you! If you have multiple Sysadmin communities, maybe it’s an idea to close all of them but 1. Just mark them as ‘only moderator can post’ and pin a post telling people to subscribe to the 1 community.
All on Hetzner.
I host:
Probably forgot some…
Why not? My mastodon DB is 200 GB, works fine.
du -sm *
2181 pictrs
1885 postgres
For now it’s 2GB. I hope we can use block storage soon. I use Wasabi for mastodon.world
You’re welcome. Enjoy!
I think there’s a misunderstanding. In the docker-compose.yml, you specify services, and these services can use the official container images. The only thing the docker-compose actually does is define your services so you don’t have to specify them each time starting a container.
Added a banner as test, but need an official banner for Lemmy.world. (@vsp@mastodon.world ? :-) )
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?
