I’ve been seeing a slow but steady movement that direction too
Comment on The Web is Going to Die
gary@piefed.world 3 weeks agoI see a lot of potential for it to push people back to the small web too. Lots of people becoming interested in personal blogs lately, decentralized social media, the whole indie web movement, etc.

You got links? Ive been working on something that fits right into this, too. It’s time, y’all.

Just started mine! In plain html/txt. Just for fun. Eventually get rss up and running.

Hell yeah! I've been blogging for a couple years but I just use Micro.blog. I'd like to switch to something completely self hosted one of these days though.
mesamunefire@piefed.social 3 weeks ago
nice! I took a look at all the options….
and decided that its all too much. wordpress get hacked daily. writefreely wouldn’t install. And some of the other centralized services kinda suck. So im back to old:
nginx with a director filled with txt files haha.
Ill publish as time goes on and by interest. Ill take a look at micro.blog too. But im thinking I might create a neocities at some point just for the fun of it.
gary@piefed.world 3 weeks ago
Neocities isn't a bad option tbh. I haven't used it in a minute but if you're thinking about neocities I really really liked bearblog.dev too!

I just spun up my own Ghost blog, being self-hosted and interacts with the Fediverse. Plus it’s pretty without me needing to know how.
gary@piefed.world 3 weeks ago
I've been really curious about Ghost lately! I set it up in a container on pikapods not too long ago but I ended up staying on Micro.blog. Something I really liked that I had no idea about beforehand was that they have their own little Discover feed over there right? It felt too serious for me when I mostly run an old school link/microblog kinda blog and it seems SO optimized for mailing lists and subscribers

I got 1gbps internet (symmetrical) and a raspberry pi cluster… running my own Wordpress never made more sense… AND that botch should scale!

You’re comfortable port forwarding onto your own network?
cubism_pitta@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Yes, My home network setup is a bit complicated but I am using Pfsense so I have things on separate vlans with internal firewall rules to reduce risks.
All traffic in on port 443 is routed from Cloudflare to an NginX reverse proxy which decides how to connect back into my network for things
Years ago I would just run a server on the network with 443, 80 and 22 exposed directly to the world and never had any major issues. (Other than the normal automated attacks trying to gain shell access over SSH)
