I think it's a little sad that there doesn't seem to be a fediverse replacement for Tumblr. Like, blog based and with reblogs. I like the format. If someone goes and makes one I might even host an instance

Sorry if this is a silly question, but what is a good imagehost to use for embedding things on AO3 if the art in question involves lolisho/underage? I know a lot of imagehosts don't allow that because some countries have dumb laws about fiction and I'm not sure what would work

Alright so the answer for that is that I do not personally know of any free to use, open for sign-up, dedicated image hosts that allow lolisho/underage to be uploaded. Twitter/X might? I'm not up on their current TOS.

I am pretty sure there are some that do, but I don't know what they are. I double checked and squidgeworld imagehosting does not allow them. And bluesky does not.

With that said, what you can do is purchase your own domain and host the images yourselves.

This is relatively easy, and relatively cheap. You can get a website and hosting for about $7 a month hosting cost and like $15 a year to own the domain. I own like 4 domains and it costs me under $30 a month.

If people who see this do know of a website that will host the content that anon is looking for so that it can be shared on AO3, please let us know!

Nextcloud success!

It's been a while, but I've finally succeeded at spinning up something that caused me to start this journey to begin with: Nextcloud! Unfortunately, it's very slow and it's kind of eating up a ton of resources from my homeserver. I'd like to add another RAM stick to it, but we all know how that went last time. The RAM works just fine in my friend's computer, so I'm not sure if the socket is bad in the motherboard or if it just doesn't play nice with what else I've got in there. Oh well.

If I want to start adding new computers to the Proxmox network, it's going to have to be old laptops I can grab from the thrift store or something. Unfortunately, I have to get some money to dump on a new NVMe drive for my Pi since the one I have is SATA or something and it won't accept it. Adelle will take it, but Lenny won't.

There are also a few more servers I need to get going, like Calibre-Web, Atsumeru, etc. We'll see how that goes in the future. Soon the only thing left for my gaming PC to do is the media server, which seems to be the only thing it's okay doing without getting irritated.

just switched to from youtube to self-hosted inviduous, reimported my subscriptions, and holy shit youtube's been hiding so much of my subscribed shit from my recommendeds. i forgot half of these guys. and i love their videos. y'all. where have they been. i love my subscriptions.

all this time the algorithm's been feeding me fuckall. they gave me that stupid AI prompt like "tell us what you wanna watch." when i literally gave them the answers. the fuck.

im turning an oldish hand me down pc tower into a minecraft server im so excited teeheehee

My new obsession is jellyfin and the *ARR suite.

What do you mean i can completely automate all parts of a streaming service for no money, completely locally, for free apart from vpn costs due to living in a country who cares about copyright.

Everything about this is amazing. There are no downsides other than your download speed once it's set up

[catppuccin-macchiato-official]

Our internet finally works!!!

However my fears have come true, as I don't have an ipv4 address of my own, just ipv6.

I really want my Webserver to be at home instead of having to rent some vserver.

Does anyone have any experience with webhosting when you only have ipv6?

I'm honestly kinda thinking about switching contract over to one that works with DSL. It'll be the same price for half the speed, but I should be able to get my precious ipv4 with it, and I also already have the router for it so it wouldn't really cost anything extra

Working with Owncast for my wife's (@potionradicalpirateradio) streaming setup and found something particularly interesting with regards to handling bandwidth

"Instead of serving video directly from your personal server you can use a S3 compatible storage provider to offload the bandwidth and storage requirements elsewhere."

Im going to test this with b2/backblaze and see how it does

[byz-was-here]

Fun fact.

You could pay out the nose to 8~12 streaming services

Or

You could buy a bunch of used PC parts on eBay, slap a free os like truenas or open media vault on it, and then run something like jellyfin or Plex on top of that and you have your own in-home streaming service that costs you an extra buck fifty on your power bill.

"man it would be cool if you could just host a website from your computer at home, i wish the internet worked like that"

Umm it literally does tho? I've been doing it for years
