cheap and easy? I tried running it myself and ran into several hurdles, and gave up. How did you host it? VPS? Docker? Bare-metal?

cheaper and easier than I expected, at least. wouldn’t want to say anyone can do it, you’d need some familiarity with the command line and dns but I’m lucky enough to have some experience with them. either way, this is the guide I followed, and I just pointed it at a hetzner vps github.com/spantaleev/…/quick-start.md

I installed it with pip in 2017 without issues

I’m not who you replied to, but there is a big stack of ansible playbooks for it that make it pretty pushbutton. They primarily use docker. This is what I used and I got it setup in like an hour.

yeah I did the ansible. You just fill out a config file point it at any Linux server with python installed and it’ll set things up for you
