It depends on the project/container. Some containers run Debian, some Alpine, some Ubuntu. I mostly rely on the community scripts from here and use the defaults.

I guess everything that supports containers, QEMU and KVM is compatible to use as a guest OS in Proxmox.

Yes, as I said it’s a debian base. But Proxmox is built for servers and using it to host and share containers or virtual machines is super simple. Especially with the community helper scripts that can set up different self-hosting projects within minutes with minimal tinkering.

Personally I would recommend Proxmox. It’s a debian based distro for hosting containers and virtual machines

Lmao are you okey? Is your brain working? Keep getting scammed by cloud hosting if you want to. I will keep using my home server and spread the word about how easy it is to host a home server and how much of a scam a VPS is.

When the majority of people talk about self-hosting they specifically talk about hosting a service on your own hardware. Not a rent on someone else’s computer…

Even Lenovo knows this shit…

Sure, you could say that since you put the service on the VPS. But you don’t own the server and host it on your own hardware. Which is what the person you replied to was talking about. Why would you even point out that hosting on service requires special knowledge if you find hosting in a VPS and at home equal?

Once could say it requires special knowledge to host a service in the cloud too. The extra step I had to take was to open port 80 and 433 on my server and install nginx to forward the traffic to the right container on my local network since I only have one public IP. It took me minimal research to figure it out.

The point was that self-hosting is not hard if you do it the right way. You claim it’s very hard and requires specialized knowledge. I don’t think it’s much different than hosting in the cloud.

I got started self-hosting last week when I got ahold of a smal Lenovo ThinkCentre. I installed Proxmox on it and if I want to self-host something I just spin up a container or virtual machine on the Proxmox system. It’s so much easier than installing self-hosted projects on bare metal. And if you want to change things around then just disable or delete the container/vm and let Proxmox stay clean. If one container breaks the rest of the system will still function.
I could easily host Lemmy from home with Proxmox and a reverse proxy with my current setup. I am not going to because I am not interested in moderating a platform and all the responsibility that comes with it, but it’s very possible to do.

The last time must have been when Valheim released. That shit got me hooked. Now I am waiting for the Deep North biome to finish development before I play it again.
Now that I think about it the last time was when Schedule 1 released.

I have never seen a cat beg another cat for food. I have seen plenty of cats beg humans for food. I am pretty sure cats are smart enough to realize we are not cats. For one, we have hands we can use to open doors and give pets

The problem has originated because he changed the lisence resulting in older versions being the only way to ship duckstation.
