I use NGINX because it’s what I’m familiar with. If I was starting again, I would probably use Caddy.

Using ‘hours of use’ as the metric, it would be Plex. The ones I use every day are Libreddit, TT-RSS, Huginn and Reddit-RSS - and my own journalling app and pocket clone.

Try a delivery test to an Outlook / Exchange server. I’ll be amazed if it goes through.

And episode 1 is currently free on Steam!

Such a fantastic book. It’s one of the few that I will read again and again.

I 100% agree here. Each instance should focus on a single topic. It makes no practical sense that there are multiple identical communities across different servers.

Same. Like, I’m relatively confident in the systems I have running, but not so confident that I’d trust them with my most important passwords.

The Detectorists is incredible. It’s my go to comfort watch.

PiVPN is great. Works on just as well on a standard server with Ubuntu.

All true. And RPIs aren’t even cheap anymore. It’s much more cost effective to buy a refurbished lease PC and get the extra processing power, expandability & reliable storage. I run everything on a HP elitedesk and it didn’t cost much over £150.

I’m relatively competent installing server software, but the Lemmy instructions completely flummoxed me. Their docker instructions just don’t work.

I ended up using the ansible docker scripts and filling out the blanks because I’m unfamiliar with ansible.

If this is as good as it sounds, you’re doing everyone a massive favour.
