  • You said it yourself — you’re new to self hosting, and CasaOS fits what you want to host. As a starting point for getting rid of hosted services, go with that for a start.

    Sure, you won’t immediately be getting your hands dirty mucking about with dockers and stuff, but you will have your working home server. For learning and experimentation, I second @[email protected]’s plan B — use another machine to test building the same setup on a base Linux system.

    If you’re like me you probably have an old laptop lying around that wouldn’t be great as an always up, day to day server, but as a testing environment to mess around with docker containers it should be fine?








  • 30% self-congratulatory talk about how popular bluesky is this week.

    TBF, Mastodon was the same when I joined. I just muted all mention of “mastodon” + variations, Bob’s your uncle. Navel gazing meta discourse is the least exciting updates on any platform.

    It is still funny to visit random egg profiles on there and see they only tooted once, two years ago, saying “so this is mastodon, wonder how this works” and then never again.



  • I switched to the fork as soon as I read this news. It shouldn’t take more than a few minutes:

    • Just install it in parallel with the mainline app,
    • export your existing configuration to the default storage location,
    • import it in syncthing-fork (it’ll detect the export file automatically),
    • and you’re done. Uninstall the official app so they don’t compete for the daemon and port.

    I mean, that quote is truer for any regular currency than it is for shitcoin. The only unique thing about cryptocurrency (and especially POW ones) is that it’s flushing the environment down the drain even quicker than bog standard hypercapitalism. And still you can’t use your fucking monopoly money to buy a bottled water.
