Proudly announce my self-hosted Owncast instance. 🎉
First public test stream this Sunday.
More details tomorrow. ☝️
Provided some instructions in the channel description in case you want to follow the channel, but I will also announce the streams on this profile. 📢

Today I found out that I can use a subdomain from my already existing online shop domain to #DNS forward to my #homeserver. I now have a nice looking web address for my #Owncast server and don't need to register a new domain. 🌐
After that I took care of gaining https and SSL. I followed Owncast's recommendation for Caddy, who provide a SSL reverse proxy with a free certificate from Let’s Encrypt.
At last I took care of the branding and individual look of the channel.

Things moving quickly now. 😃
Don't know how, but somehow I just managed to do a short test stream on my self hosted #Owncast server.
After all the issues I had during the last days with my #RaspberryPi and my Internet Service Provider to get my server running , it was so invigorating to set up Owncast with such ease.
Thanks @[email protected] for the great software and the easy to follow documentation.
Didn't expect the installation being that easy. 👌
#selfhosting #streaming #fediverse
...figuring out what to request specifically I reached out for my ISP and they luckily could provide me with everything I needed and even unlocked it within one hour only.
I used this telephone call to also upgrade my upload bandwidth to 50 Mbit/s, what should give me the opportunity to host some more traffic intense services on my home server and therefore don't need to outsource this to a #VPS.
It's strenuous but I am sure the resulting opportunities will be rewarding.
#selfhosting #server
The last three days I spent every free minute for getting deeper into the #selfhosting topic I never dealt with before.
And this seems necessary as there is so much to learn, understand and troubleshoot:
After finally being able to flash the SD card for the #RaspberryPi, I had to realize that my Internet Service Provider doesn't provide me with Dual Stack. That means no individual IPv4 address, no port forwarding, no bridge mode and therefore no access to my server from the outside.
After...
After...
There are things going on that demonstrate the importance of independent, decentralized solutions for the way we use the internet for the democratic discourse and to share our ideas, dreams and hopes.
I still use #Twitch but I don't want to wait until #Bezos also officially makes this platform to a place where hate gets pushed and minorities have to fear discrimination.
Step by step getting into #selfhosting, not only for streaming, is my way of compensating. Getting a #RaspberryPi is step #1.
New blog post!
In which I talk about how I joined the club of Fediverse admins with my own GoToSocial instance.
As botsin.space is going down I needed a place to host my bot, and so I decided to setup my own Fedi server. In the blog post I go through the requirements and the configs required to have your own instance in the Fediverse, and also mention the cool things you can do with it.

#GoToSocial #Fediverse #SelfHosting #blog
Had an exciting day today.
(TL;DR: I accidentally created a Cloudflare Tunnel fight club.)
So I moved my #GoToSocial instance to a new server today. The move went really smoothly and the instance was back up in less than 30 min.
Then weird shit started happening: sometimes my new posts/replies disappeared and reappeared, images were not always loading, notifications acted up.
This confused the fuck out of me.
Restarting the server didn't help. I even reinstalled the #Pachli app but it only got weirder: I started seeing "invalid token" errors after logging in, but only 50% of the time and the other 50% it worked perfectly fine.
Then came the realization! The old server was still running alongside the new one. Shouldn't really be a problem because the domain is pointing to the new one, right?
The thing is though, my instance is running behind a #Cloudflare tunnel so now the same tunnel was running on both servers, fighting each other for control. After shutting down the old server, everything started working fine again.

Showing the #Fediverse some love this morning with a new app directory dedicated to #ActivityPub platforms, clients, and tools for easy browsing and discovery:
https://selfh.st/apps/?directory=activityPub
Users can browse by the various software types with a filter for platform (web, desktop, mobile) and various sort options based on popularity (repo stars), recent development activity, and more.

Over the past three days, I've been on a deep dive learning #Hugo and how to create a #StaticSite, the basics of #Git and #GitHub.
It's so cool whenever I got things to work after every error I encountered! It was a nice challange for sure.
I also received my #raspberrypi 4B 8GB last week. Just in time to share my new-found knowledge tidbits on my latest Hugo blog!

Time for a proper #introduction!
I'm an open-source enthusiast and self-hosting masochist. Initially a #JavaScript developer, still doing all things web, big #WebAssembly fan, recovering conference addict. I am a #DevRel focusing on #DevEx & OSS communities in particular. Also a staunch advocate of flexible, async remote work.
I co-founded #RustFest (that really needs a proper fediverse presence, until then, check out @[email protected]) with @[email protected] & @[email protected]
Frequently have Opinions™ and post about #conferences, especially online, #remoteWork, my #homelab & #selfhosting hobby (currently rebuilding, follow along at #homelabNG )
