I'm currently trying to migrate a #mastodon server from masto.host to self-hosted and having problems (I already shut down the server, so I'm posting from an old account).
Does somebody know which files in the backup are which in the mastodon migration guide?
I'm also having trouble with restoring the PostgreSQL backup ('pg_restore: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "mastodon"').
Thanks for any help!
(It would be nice if someone could boost this, because given that this is an old account, I don't think many people would see this post otherwise.)
I'm so excited about existing self-hosted applications (https://selfh.st/apps/) and possibilities to integrate them, so I dumped some of my random thoughts on pubnix-like community infrastructure in this post:
Nitter is not dead. The alternative twitter/x front-end,is still working. Yes, now there are just a few public instances (nitter.poast.org is one of them), but with just a basic linux and docker knowledge you can self-host your own private instance.
Software launches, updates, new directory apps, a spotlight on Alex Kretzschmar @ironicbadger - a content creator and frequent contributor to the self-hosted community, and more in this week's self-hosted recap!
It took me a few tries to get into the boot manager of the Minix Z100-0dB, but now Debian is installed.
And the first impression is great! Everything already feels very fast. Worlds better than with my Rock64 NAS. But I can only say more once I've run a few benchmarks and finished setting up my NAS.
Vorrei iniziare ad utilizzare nextcloud per i miei servizi cloud, ma sono indeciso se mettere su un mio server, oppure affidarmi ad un servizio VPS o similare? La mia paura del locale è la possibile perdita di dati (penso sempre ad ogni possibile disatro) #nextcloud#cloud#selfhosting#server#backup
I've been meaning to do this for a while, and tonight I finally supported @mwl for his new book: Run Your Own Mail Server: A Book for Independence & Privacy
Every book I've read by mwl has gifted me with smiles, laughter, knowledge, awareness, and a desire to experiment.
Can't wait to dive into this new work!

Cancelled my wordpress.com plan today. Started using it during a lull in self-hosting.
Not intending to self-host Wordpress though - are there any good tools to convert Wordpress exports into something usable? I'm considering running a static blog off markup or something.
The direction of computing today (AI, everything is a damn ad/influencer bs, etc) is why things like #oss, #Mastodon, #meshtastic and #SelfHosting in general are so important. I say that even as an apple user but of all the big players I dislike them the least.
Irgendein Bug im letzten #Jellyfin-Update (10.9.2) macht Sperenzchen, so dass Clients nur noch eingeschränkt bzw. gar nicht mehr funktionieren/connecten. 😩 Halben Tag alles mögliche versucht und jetzt geb ich einfach auf und warte auf einen (hoffentlich baldigen) hotfix. #selfhosting
I’ve been having a foray into Home Assistant again after a two years and I have a question for the experts:
I have a HomePod Mini that’s the hub of my Home. All my Thread devices are connected to it
I can see the HomePod in HomeAssistant and control what music it’s playing, but I can’t see the Thread devices connected to it
Some people are saying you can use this “Import Credentials” button in the Thread integration, but that doesn’t do anything
Is there a solution? #HomeAssistant#selfhosting
I have a home server with various services running (all isolated with different user accounts). The server has a small SSD and a big external HDD, but I'd like to make external backups to my cloud account. The cloud service has a proprietary command line application to sync data, so backups would ideally be date separated compressed tar files that it can then sync. An additional complication are PostgreSQL and SQLite databases that can't just be copied without risking breaking the integrity of the files.
How would you do the backups? Do you have some existing app that you could suggest? I'm sure I can whip up some script to do it, but I wouldn't mind if there was something already made.
Hey fellow #selfhosting nerds, what does #paperless_ngx do that Apple Notes doesn't? I understand not everyone is in the Apple garden but still. Notes do multi-language OCR better. I'm probably missing something. I'm asking because I see Apple nerds gush about it.
Finally got a hard drive issue sorted out and all my self hosted bits and pieces running again. I guess this is the risk of not renting hardware. Still, fun to have it all working again and aside from catastrophic failures, I think I’m set now.
