Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I also use kubernetes to run my Lemmy instance. Sadly,
pictrs
uses their own "database" file which can only be opened by a single pod because it refuse to run if the "database" lock is already acquired by another pod, making scaling up the number of pods impossible. I wish they use postgres instead of inventing their own database. I suspect this is one of the reasons why those large Lemmy instances have difficulty scaling up their server.You mean pictrs can't scale, or the other pods cannot as well? I separated lemmy-ui, the backend, and pictrs into different pods. Haven't tried scaling anything yet though, but I did notice the database issue with pictrs when RollingRestart, had to switch to Recreate.
Only pictrs that can't scale. Lemmy ui and backend seems to be stateless.
