I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks all! I’ve got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!

How hard is it? Did you use the official guide? I looked into Mastodon and it was a bit too custom and annoying to spin up.

Lemmy setup about is as easy as you could make it. The ansible approach is very simple on Ubuntu. You need a host with ports 443 and 80 open and ssh key login for the server. Happy to help if you need it.

The Ansible install does make things a lot more simple, but it’s still pretty involved if you’re new to self-hosting in general. For example, you might need to set up an SMTP relay if you can’t port forward a workable port, and you also will probably want to change your Nginx configs to allow uploading larger images than a single megabyte.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
