Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Introducing Homelabinator, the easiest way to self-host.English
3 monthsI’m not fond of what makes it easier to set up a homelab. Because it might give the impression that you can run it with very little skills. And that opens the door to making your setup a netbot.
I use Radicale as a Docker container and it runs fine, with no maintenance apart from upgrading the image once in a while.

I presume that its power consumption is not to be neglected. Do I’d just keep it off of I don’t really need it.

Instead of asking for a ntfy alternative, could you tell what you want to achieve? Because ntfy has several functions, primarily that of carrying notifications. And it seems that’s not what you want to achieve. Maybe you can find it here.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How to self-host a Prosody XMPP server on Bazzite with Podman for MovimEnglish
4 monthsSetting up an xmpp server is not a good entrypoint in the self-hosting space. It is quite hard to build. It is a complex system made of different components in order to achieve what you expect from it. I strongly recommend using existing servers. If you want to tinker, find something else (a samba share and a vpn on bare metal is a good starting point in order to learn).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life?English
8 monthsI just like it and I value my privacy. I don’t try to convince anyone. I explain it is both a hobby and a kind of political statement.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently?English
9 monthsI have been self-hosting my mail server for the past 5 or 6 years with success. Recently my ISP decided to close port 25 so I have to use a third party to deliver my outgoing mail.

I genuinely don’t understand what you are paying for. I must have missed something.

It is hard to set up and you might need an SMTP relay since most ISPs close port 25. But it is feasible.
- 10 months
I have everything at home, including the mail server. The only third party to my setup is a SMTP relay. All on an Odroid H4+. With a backup server on a Raspberry Pi 4 at my daughter’s.
- 10 months
What I do is a local backup on a different disk with BorgBackup, then a copy of that local backup to a Pi at a friend’s place, with rsync.

Run it in some place where it can easily read the logs of your apps.
