Ohhhhnoooo, really? Crap!

Maybe it’stime to make it be associated even more with good people then!

I’m no expert, and I just now did quick research into hubzilla, but it looks like a fine option.

• MIT licensed FOSS, repo on gitlab, recently updated
• good for blogs and any size group of people in a social network
• supports activity pub, so connects to pleroma, friendica, mastodon, etc…

Yeah, good stuff. I also wonder why we don’t hear more about this?

I just looked into this. Am I right to guess that it still needs Syncthing on my PC to connect to?

Ohwow, did not know it could do that. Been using KDE Connect for years and yes, this works.

Thanks - that’s it for me. ^^^ This idea wins, y’all.

The mastodon people just posted this too. It’s the designer’s perspective.

Awesome, thanks for the answers

Great idea, really good name.

I looked at the back end source.

1. Do I understand correctly that when I run your app in my PC, the ISO is built on your server and then I download it?

2. Why does app.py submit an ip address to a google form?

You should know, stuff like that is going keep a lot of self hosters from recommending this.

This, yes?

It is interesting, yes.

Hi @carlnewton@feddit.uk , I really love this idea and really appreciate you taking on this big task.

I can see it replacing the stand-alone web site I run now for a local group, but I have a couple of questions before I go install the app and try it out.

1. Do you have a list of existing instances somewhere? I looked around in your github and blog site, and could not find that.
2. How do you keep the content that gets posted to stick to the local topic? I.e., if I set up a site for my small city, what’s to stop someone from spamming posts about the big city nearby? Or a big city plumber from advertising their services?
3. How do admins deal with spam / negative content getting posted? Once a site takes off, this is a real problem, I hope you’re thinking about how to solve.

Again, thanks.

Good to know, thanks.

Yah, I just read the History section of the OO wikipedia page, and it mentions that from the start. I’m not someone with a knee jerk reaction to “Russian” but it’s worth considering. Thanks.

The question then is: Does CP replacing the server-side code with their own resolve this concern, or is there still a risk there? Man, nothing is simple.

Yes but the RSS feed for non-subscribers is just the announcement of the post. I still have to go to the site to read the whole newsletter, which is fine.

Yep. I got an email from them yesterday. My lil box is going from just under 4 USD to 5 USD per month.

Yeah. I thought of Planka.

I use the free version and its great for what OP described. Really simple to set up in docker too.

One. Of. Us!

I see the Linkedin logo but don’t know of any such replacement for the ‘social media for employment’ service they offer. If there is now such a service, I would switch in a heartbeat.

I just added this URL for Jellyfin and it “just worked”:

https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/releases

25, with your “docker ps” command, on my aging Nuc10 PC. Only using 5GB of its 16GB of RAM.

What, me worry?

Sweet! Have fun with that.

I don’t have a suggestions but maybe check out this list on Ethan Solly’s SelfH.st site?

Edit to Add: And if you can’t host it yourself, I’ve used PikaPods for things like this and they have a few of those options available in their list for not much dough:
