What are people using for webmail software these days?
  • @[email protected] I loved rain loop until I learned they had a vulnerability where a malicious email could compromise the system. IDK if they have fixed it but it was my favorite webmail by far. Nowadays I'm using desktop clients sadly.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • @[email protected] In general I think old, small computer laptops are going to be a better long-term solution for self-hosting than a raspberry pi.

    Sure, it is hard to compete in terms of size, but you will soon find yourself looking for bigger specs anyways

  • What got you into selfhosting and what was the first thing that you hosted?
  • @[email protected] I wrote my own music player, after that I installed PiHole. After that I realized there were much better music players out there :-P

  • If incandescent lightbulbs have a vacuum inside, why do they get so hot on the outside?
  • @[email protected] like teenagers, all solar systems think other solar systems are cooler than them and know what they’re doing

  • Help with backup solution
  • @[email protected] I suspect you can force restic not to encrypt. The other additional advantage of restic and similars is that you can specify s3, sftp and other targets.

  • How stressful is to be a yoga teacher? Engineers, doctors, school teachers are known to have a lot of pressure in their jobs, I wonder if the same happens for yoga teachers and similar jobs?

    Is jellyfish vegan?
  • @[email protected] Nope, they are animals so technically they are not vegan

  • How much swap?
  • @[email protected] Honestly it depends a lot on your use case. I have 1x RAM swap and usually only half is used

  • What reason could Zuckerberg and Meta possibly have for wanting to create a federated social media site?
  • @[email protected] I suspect it is to whitewash the fact that they are walled gardens

    "look! we are activitypub-interoperable. it is not our fault everybody wants to use our service instead of mastodon!"

  • NPM vs Traefik?
  • @[email protected] it is but:

    - You have a bunch of predefined setups for common services
    - Auto renewal of certificates by default
    - It is NGINX in the back, unlike NPM that uses a custom SQLite schema for some stuff
    - There are some nice plugins/extension for analyzing logs

  • NPM vs Traefik?
  • @[email protected] I'm using SWAG on my VPS and I'm seriously thinking of using it for my home server as well (using NPM for now)

  • Which Dynamic DNS Service are you using?
  • @[email protected] dyndns worked fine. Duckdns is a preferred among self hosters. Also your domain name provider might also offer dynamic dns sometimes

  • What (https://social.graves.cl/tags/self-hosted) alternatives do you have for (https://social.graves.cl/tags/Discord) CLIENTS? (not alternatives to discord, but how to consume

    What #self-hosted alternatives do you have for #Discord CLIENTS? (not alternatives to discord, but how to consume discord channels/servers without their overloaded client)

    [Question] Does anyone run their own email server?
  • @[email protected] If it helps you, I started with https://mailinabox.email, which is incredibly easy to set up.

    Right now I'm using https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver which I feel it is a bit trickier, but more escapable in the long term

  • [Question] Does anyone run their own email server?
  • @[email protected] I do, it is a pain and I understand why it is not worth for some people.
