  • What's up, selfhosters? It's selfhosting Sunday!

  • It was a huge pita to get it running, but I have it.

    One thing about the WA bridge is that element won't let me give display names or look up the contact number, so the people in chatting with don't have names, just "their number (WA)"

  • For backups, I have two drives that are striped and do nightly backups to idrive. I was able to find a containerized version of the console app and I have it run on a schedule from 3-7am.

    I use NPM to redirect a domain name to the server with https.

  • Write.as or Micro.blog or ?? for migration of public profile from big corporate social media

    Jump

  • I'm currently using write.as. It's a pretty bare-bones setup when in single user mode and doesn't give the kind of list view you might expect for readers - it loads everything onto a single page. I'm considering maybe using Ghost, which is another big name in the federated blogging space. Write.as doesn't come with comments by default, but I was able to add cactus-comments, but it was a huge PITA because it requires a matrix server.

    I do, however, like the minimalist UI aspect of it. You can take a look at mine here. I was also able to get around the list thing by using pinned posts, which stay at the top, so I made an about, a directory, and subscribe pages.

    Write.as will post to mastodon under an account that it creates and I have myself on mastodon as a verified owner of the blog site.

  • The interns complained about having to pay $18 for parking and I'm conflicted

    Jump

  • I don't really know what town or how good the public transit is, but interns don't really make anything. Advocating for a transit allowance or something that could cover public transit and could be used to help with parking could be good. If they live in town, going over biking or transit options with them could also be good, and maybe also "park and ride" options as well. But yeah, $18 daily when you're an intern isn't easy.

  • is the baby federating?

  • How would I set up local DNS or DNS rewrite

    Jump

  • I posted an edit to the post on how I i solved it. Your feedback was helpful in the solution!

  • How would I set up local DNS or DNS rewrite

    Jump

  • I think so. One issue i ran in to is that trying to go anywhere would land on the ui page. If I put npm on ports 80/443, then the UI needs to be elsewhere so I can access it. It shouldn't be too hard, I hope

  • What RSS feed are you subscribed to/can recommend?

    Jump

  • Daaaaaamn that's a long list. Saved!

  • How would I set up local DNS or DNS rewrite

    Jump

  • Hmm, i may have to get my admin ui's off of ports 80/443 and port forward with NPM on those ports instead. The reason I was using nginx on the router was so the server could keep the UI on the normal ports and Nginx elsewhere.

    I think then I could remove the router Nginx entries and add the DNS rewrite

  • How would I set up local DNS or DNS rewrite

    Jump

  • There's an idea. I may play with it tomorrow.bill be back on the road, so I'm not keen on doing too much when I can't fix it haha. But right now the router is DNS, so when I did traceroute there was only one stop. But it was the SSL termination that got me. I might be able to download the stream module for Nginx. I think if I wanted to be optimal I may have to totally restructure that part....

    Edit: thank you for the feedback, you've given me something to think about

  • I think you might be right on that. I was originally not wanting to do any port forwarding on the router, but I may have to

    Jump

  • So even if I remove the SSL cert lines from the router Nginx config, it seems to be applying the router's SSL certificate. I commented out some lines to use a certificate for my root domain, but I'd rather NPM handle that, which doesn't seem to be happening.

  • How to open a post to their home instance or using another instance?

    Jump

  • I thought you could put the full URL and find it that way as well, but if you mean you want to find it by title, that should work normally, unless i misunderstood

  • [Answered: cannot] How can we contribute to Lemmy code from outside github?

    Jump

  • haha fair

  • [Answered: cannot] How can we contribute to Lemmy code from outside github?

    Jump

  • You should be able to mirror or fork, make contributions there, and you can probably try to do a PR back into the original. You will still have to use github somewhat since that's where the original repo is.

  • What's up, selfhosters? - The Sunday thread

    Jump

  • I just got cactus comments working on my writefreely blog. Cactus comments needs matrix, so I got matrix with element set up. It was an incredibly frustrating journey of learning, but it turns out the final bit wasn't too complicated. I'm running on TruNas, which I hear you shouldn't do, but it's too late haha.

    I also got the whatsapp bridge set up, but it doesn't look like matrix supports disappearing messages, so I left some rooms it created b/c one of the larger groups easily took up a gig of storage before disappearing messages was turned on.

    Anyway, writefreely has federated cactus comments that you can currently only sign in with a matrix account lol. I can try and change that later. I host the photos with picsur.

    I think that I need to collect my notes and memories and put it into a blog post, but I don't really want to turn my blog (if I even keep up with it) into a blog about how to self host a blog.

    In hindsight, I don't think the comments were worth it, but whatever.

  • Hope you weren’t planning to play PhysX games on Nvidia’s new 50-series GPUs

  • Ah, the good old days 😂 having to manually fix drivers but with limited help from the internet

  • I played Mirrors Edge a bit. The only part of physx in the game that I remember, as i didn't finish it, was that there were some random curtains that would blow in the wind and weren't placed anywhere where they would actually matter
