Does "Selfhosted" mean you actually have a server at home?

    @ProtecyaTec@lemmy.world yeah if you want to host something like Lenny you may be able to do it on a home server but in terms of ports blocked, security, etc I guess it is easier to run it in a VPS

    @ProtecyaTec@lemmy.world idk about ansible but if you are starting I would recommend starting small, in your personal computer. Docker is a good way to start

    @ProtecyaTec@lemmy.world not sure what that means but I guess you can do certain thing in your home server not allowed on a VPS. OTOH, an email server at home for example is much more difficult to achieve because your ISP most likely won’t allow you to open port 25

    There are definitely benefits on running a server at home but you could say the same of a VPS. As long as you control it, it is self hosted in my book.

    Have the trees started turning colors earlier this year?
  • alvaro alvaro 1y ago 100%

    @PRUSSIA_x86@lemmy.world I don't know in Ohio, but I've heard® that when there is too little water or maybe too hot, trees start turning leaves red (maybe because it is an indicator for them that they are at the end of summer and fall is coming?)

    @iturnedintoanewt@lemmy.world Ubuntu? What happens if you manually change resolv to the up of your pinhole? I remember Ubuntu has this silly resolvconfd that makes everything more confusing

    @iturnedintoanewt@lemmy.world @127@lemmy.world which server is configured in your machine (/etc/resolv.conf in linux, or in system preference in Mac). My first guess would be to check what is your computer using as a DNS ip

  • What types of services are you not willing to self-host?
  • alvaro alvaro 1y ago 86%

    @Tinnitus@lemmy.world I would say in retrospective, email, but it is too late now.

    While I do have self hosted backups, I also have offsite, paid copies as well, not sure if that can be considered "self hosting" though.
