My logs are actually rammed with entries like the above. It's not a helpful UA, so what is it doing? Being a POST I'm pretty certain it's not crawling but I'm also not following all that many (if any in fact) Threads users?

This is still an instance for test purpose only, but it's already federating with more than 400 instances 😆

#selfhost #gotosocial

WOW WOW WOW is my initial reaction to the Ditto community server

It is exactly what Nostr needs and what I had hoped atproto would have

It is even compatible with Mastodon API

--previosly nostr relays, storage and ids were complicated
--atproto lacks the ease for self hosters to build their communities compared to those on activitypub

Today I'm talking about #jellyfin, the service which got me excited about #homelabbing and #selfhosting in the first place.

Here's a blog where I went into depths of how I manage #media in my homelab with Jellyfin and #arr stack.

Jellyfin + arr stack — Self-hosted media streaming in my Homelab

Since ages, I have been collecting lots of movies, TV shows, and music. Ever since I got into self hosting, I have been looking for a way to stream my media collection to my devices. Jellyfin is the perfect solution for this.

Posted a new article featuring several capable self-hosted Google Analytics alternatives this morning.

I'm deploying Umami for selfh.st and a few other sites, but definitely recommend checking out the others as well.

I'm currently trying to migrate a #mastodon server from masto.host to self-hosted and having problems (I already shut down the server, so I'm posting from an old account).

Does somebody know which files in the backup are which in the mastodon migration guide?

I'm also having trouble with restoring the PostgreSQL backup ('pg_restore: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "mastodon"').

Thanks for any help!

(It would be nice if someone could boost this, because given that this is an old account, I don't think many people would see this post otherwise.)
