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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have my self-hosted instance now, but there are some issues / open questions:

  • When going to my admin-page, I see tons of banned users I never banned myself. Who banned them, why do I need to know about it?
  • Concerned I might have left my instance too open and they might have used my instance for spamming, I tried to look for all users on my instance. By directly accessing postgres:lemmy and checking the user-ids, I saw it's just the expected ones, however, I wasn't able to find the usernames, neither easily in postgres nor on the lemmy admin page. Any ideas?
  • I see timeouts when accessing my lemmy instance, however, the host doesn't show high cpu-, memory- or network-load and I don't see anything immediately suspicious in the logs. According to iftop, there aren't insane amounts of connections, either. Sometimes it seems to help temporarily to restart my apache server. Any ideas, what to look out for?
