I"m relatively new to self-hosting and I have an instance on Oracle cloud with a few apps that I run. More recently this instance is becoming unresponsive every 30 minutes or so.

Soon, I’ll need to increase the storage capacity of my Lemmy server. I use a Digital Ocean VPS running Debian 11. I don’t really need to increase the RAM, CPU, or other core system resources so I planning on adding some block storage to my VPS. My question is: How can I tell Lemmy/Pict-rs to store/retrieve new data here...

I recently stood up a new file server using ZFS on linux. I’d like to automate the disk checking in such a way that I can essentially ignore and have a service notify me when SMART or other indications are hitting failure or pre-fail levels....

I’m pretty new in this space, and have been tinkering around with some self-hosting for the last month or so, via Docker on an Ubuntu host. I’m pretty comfortable with Linux, but trying to learn reverse-proxy stuff. So, I thought my next project would be Vaultwarden, but I want to be able to access it from outside the...

Today I got my first proxmox server up and running, I’m looking for fun things to run in docker that archives things or just other cool stuff.

This is a question mostly for the sake of trying to learn more about how self-hosting works, and it is not vital that I resolve this. But if anyone wants to help me understand this, I would greatly appreciate it....

I’ve been self-hosting Nextcloud for sometime on Linode. At some point in the not too distant future, I plan on hosting it locally on a server in my home as I would like to save on the money I spend on hosting. I find the use of Nextcloud to suit my needs perfectly, and would like to continue using the service....

I have ZERO experience: I’ve always been interested in Tech and I like to try and play with lot of stuff, but apart from super basic use of bash and some...
