- Comment on Mastodon is making its decentralized social network easier to use with its latest revamp 2 weeks ago:
X and threads are Microblog pages, seems plausible to me to use them as a comparison. It’s the platforms we want to migrate people from to mastodon.

Hi there! It’s been a while since you posted or commited, I hope you’re alright!
- Comment on Stupid question, but are there free VPS/VM instances for a jobless girl who wants to run her own instance? 2 weeks ago:
I just wanna say that Lemmy isn’t exactly light on resources. 4GB of RAM are barely enough, even on a single user instance. I don’t think free tiers will offer more
- Comment on What are your favorite low-footprint self-hosted services? 2 weeks ago:
KOReader is great, basically swiss army knife, you can configure everything. Not the most intuitive UI though.

Looks great!
Pats on the back to whoever knows what these poles are for.
Giant Mikado, clearly

What exactly are you looking for? A replacement messenger or something that allows communication with those messengers?
- Comment on Is it possible to have a usable domain without a VPS or a static IP address? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I still do this. I have a cronjob on one of my servers that runs every five minutes, checks if the upstream DNS IP matches my public IP and, if not, sets it. Adding 60s TTL, this means an average downtime of 3 minutes per change, max 6 minutes.
It’s also possible to use different nameservers than the one the registrar provides, in case the registrar doesn’t have a proper API for DNS.

Big fan of how this goes. I wish I had something to blog about. :D
(I have, I just can’t get myself motivated to actually write about it)

There’s Ibis, a side project from one of the Lemmy devs (nutomic). ibis.wiki
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly (13 March 2026) 4 weeks ago:
I’m not sure a fork makes sense given the dev merged way too much nonsense already. Maybe from a point in time before it started?
I’ve been looking to check out Booklore over some annoyances I have with CWA but IDK anymore.

I never tried ABS, but since I just read ebooks and don’t listen to audiobooks, it just never seemed fitting for me.
- Comment on Dashboard for my servers 4 weeks ago:
You can use reverse proxies for local only, usually by restricting the address to local IP ranges. You can even choose a non-existent fun tld!

Looks like @fabio@manganiello.blog made a cool thing here!

Apparently it’s an iOS appstore

So, mentioning you like this shows up in the guestbook? @fabio@manganiello.blog

Looks pretty cool!
- Comment on What's your self-hosting success of the week? 4 weeks ago:
Opnsense is only between the servers and the pi, the pi is in the same subnet as our consumer devices and the opnsense (directly connected to the router). The issues are both on the consumer devices and on the server, so the opnsense should not be the direct issue.
- Comment on What's your self-hosting success of the week? 4 weeks ago:
Still waiting for my success. Pihole randomly doesn’t answer DNS requests in time, causing a lot of trouble between my services. It’s happening since I switched to dnsmasq in opnsense (which is upstream for my local domain for Pihole), but also for external domains. Can’t nail it down and am this short of reconsidering my whole network setup. It used to work fine for over a year though…
Opnsense dnsmasq is DHCP for my servers and also resolves them as local hosts. (e.g. server1.local.domain) and Pihole conditionally forwards there. Since the issue is also when resolving external domains, it shouldn’t be related, but the timing is suspicious. I also switched the general upstream DNS.
Pihole does have some logs indicating too many concurrent requests, but those are not always correlating with the timeouts.
I know it’s DNS, I just don’t know where yet.
- Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
Thanks for the example! The reasons you mentioned were why I wasn’t looking into it more (using it for my local docs as well).

Want? Yes - Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
As someone from Northern Germany, I’m obliged to check out MoinMoin!
- Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
Thanks, I missed that.

How did you approach finding the proper plugins?
- Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
Yeah it seems like it’s doing too much for me.
- Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
I installed that editor, but that’s the point, I’m looking for something where I didn’t have to puzzle too many extensions together.
I’ll probably give DokuWiki another try. Bookstack is not what I’m looking for, but maybe I’ll have a look at wiki.js!
- Comment on Which wiki software to host 5 weeks ago:
I used to host DokuWiki at some point but I inherited it and never really got into it. Maybe I should give it another try. It was also a native install and I found the updating mechanism to be annoying, but that should be solved with containers.
I’m using Bookstack as well to document my private stuff but it’s not what I’m looking for.
