Hello, today I would like to announce the creation of a mattermost group “Casual Selfhosters”.
I created it because I feel like there is a need for real time chat at times when it comes to helping someone with selfhosting and some aspects of communication generally work better in real time chat, than in a forum like setting like what lemmy does.
The server is hosted on a dedicated hetzner machine.
I would love for the mattermost group to grow alongside this lemmy community and be a good addition in helping other people get into selfhosting.
Hoping for good feedback to make the community even better and hope people will find it usefull if they are ever in need of real time chat to help someone across the globe.
I don’t know what Mattermost is and clicking on the link that OP provided I only see a sign-up page. I don’t know before signing up what kind of content to expect. Not quite enticing to sign up in that case on what looks like some random page.
Good idea but I am not sure this can take off. But maybe I am not the target population here.
It’s discord like interface and I plan on only having selfhosted related content on it, mostly just for people to help one another in a more “well known” way of discord and real time chatting.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.
