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.

-
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.

Thanks for the advice. I'm old school and never use Docker, but maybe it's time I get over that. I'm actually out of my element anyway in that I do a lot of self-hosting but up to this point it has almost all used Apache and MySQL rather than Nginx and Postgres. Hopefully someone will come along with a solution for the diesel-async compiling error while I'm at work for the next few hours, but if not I'll give your suggestion a shot this evening.
You'll have to do some reading, but here's some (almost) turnkey repos for all the pieces you need to host Lemmy (and other things) in docker.
I use Traefik instead of nginx to do load balancing / edge routing / reverse proxy / SSL termination (and automatic generation via LetsEncrypt - it's proven to be bulletproof in a good few production setups.
Oh wow that's amazing! Docker really is amazing for hosting stuff nowadays though!
