Hello,

just wanted to share that I have successfully hosted copyparty instance behind cloudflare on my porator laptop :D

you can use it to share memes or use it as temporary storage, I don't have any idea of how to manage a public facing service but I will figure it out.

I couldn't find it on 1337x and rargb.to, can somone tell where can I find it please 🥺

Hello folks,

I have a mini PC which I use to host my website and some lightweight services. The mini PC idles at ~10% cpu usage. I was wondering if I can contribute 90% of CPU to the community. Thinking that maybe I can host other people's websites for free.

How can I do that? Should I host some fediverse software? What do I do with this much processing power?

Thanks in advance!

( this post may seems like it's more related to programming than selfhosting but I wasn't sure so here we go )

Hello folks,

I made a Temp SMS service using Python. I used flask for serving the API and sms-forwarder app ( https://github.com/GreyTechno/sms_forwarder ) to forward messages from a phone to the server.

there is just two end points one is where you get the home page which displays all the incoming messages and another one is used to get the message sent from the phone. it's pretty simple actually...

tell me what you think about it :)

Edit: the service is down since someone is DOSing the service... I will quickly try to block them.

Hello folks,

TIL that how can you bootstrap my DHT nodes before downloading a torrent.

Find a good famous software from fosstorrent and seed it for some while and then when you seed it for some time, your DHT count will be increased. now you can easily download a torrent by just providing the hash of the torrent ( assuming some DHT node knows where the file of the given hash is ).

hope you learned something new today, if you have a good idea than this feel free to add it in the comment section :)

Hello folks,

I got my static IP and I am very happy now, I have been hosting a lot of services since I got the static IP, however I still have to host a fediverse service however it's not that easy to host any fediverse service, I tried to host GoToSocial but the devs said they don't support Podman and my server is podman only ( I tried installing docker but it was failing for some reason so I gave up and used podman instead of docker).

these are the services I am currently hosting ( basically all the easy services which you can host with just "docker compose up -d" :p ):

• Invidious: https://invidious.ghodawalaaman.duckdns.org/
• Qbittorrent ( web ui )
• TheLounge
• XMPP server: https://chat.ghodawalaaman.duckdns.org/

feel free to suggest some other cool services which I can host :D

Hello,

I have hosted azuracast in my minipc and I want to forward the IP of the song requester, right now it's only taking one IP the "podman container ip" so basically Azuracast thinks that every request is coming from the IP address 10.89.1.1 which is the IP of interface created by podman.

57: podman3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 0e:fa:6d:33:b9:39 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.89.1.1/24 brd 10.89.1.255 scope global podman3
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::b876:abff:fede:c3ef/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

also I am explicitly forwarding the IP using X-Forwarded-Host.

reverse_proxy http://localhost:4000/ {
		header_up X-Forwarded-Host {host}
	}

I don't know how to resolve it, any help would be appreciated :)

Edit: I didn't had to so any of this stuff, what I should have done is just enabling "reverse proxy" option in Azuracast since Caddy forwards those headers by default unlike nginx. Thank you very much for helping me <3

Hello,

I don't know if it's just me or duckdns.org is actually down for everyone else. I can't nslookup my domain name also can't access my website.

Edit: It's back on :)

Greetings,

my current ISP refuses to provide me a static IP and they also blocks incoming connection to my ipv6 so I can't host services on just ipv6 too. I will be changing my ISP when the plan expires.

without public IP I can host my own IRC bouncer but I would like to know what else can I self host? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

first I installed Gentoo with glibc and it worked fine, I got sway up and running but after some time I got bored and wanted something new. so I decided to go with Arch with rEFInd bootloader but I couldn't make it work. Arch dropped me into a rescue shell. so I went back to Gentoo but this time with musl and this time I tried Hyprland on Gentoo. there were 133 packages to install for Hyprland, so I went for installing those packages but the build failed probably because using musl. now I thought I just pick that's easy to setup and I went with Debian and it got installed successfully. so yeah, right now I am using Debian after the back and forth between Arch and Gentoo.

sadly I pissed of some Gentoo devs on IRC #gentoo :(

maybe it was my fault I shouldn't have distrohopped when Gentoo was installed succesfully and working fine.
