Forum Federato

@elena I see you already have a well-configured and attractive Ghost site. The Docker version of Ghost is easy to install. Follow the instructions here to the letter: https://docs.ghost.org/install/docker . It's important that the server on which you install Docker and Ghost is clean and has no other packages installed, such as MySQL or a web server. A (sub)domain must then point to the server. The installer expects a freshly host, and anything you do differently may cause conflicts or configuration errors.

@marcogaio @jenshansen @leandro se cerco su sociale.network (mastodon) il link ad un post del castopod lo trova, ho fatto anche il follow e ho commentato un post, quindi da questo lato la federazione del tuo castopod verso il fediverso funziona. Dai un po' di tempo ai dati di federazione per propagarsi, io col search i tuoi dati me li sono andati a prendere... vedo che hai acceso tutto oggi e il processo di federazione non è istantaneo.

@overeducatedredneck @evgandr and, often, the dockerfile is a 20kB mess of old versions explicitely tagged or "things will break"

@winkelmesser haha I hear you.My husband yesterday said: "did you know that Pocket is dead?" and I replied "yes, did you know that you can self-host similar services?" ​

@venya thank you! 🥰​

@castaway aw thank you for your comment, it makes me feel so much better as a newbie. I'm honestly terrified of Docker now because of all the holes it pokes in a VPS's security...

@shollyethan honored for the mention Ethan - and LOL at the fact that because of my toot you learned that "sudo" in Italian means "I sweat" ​Bonus: it's the same in Spanish. "yo sudo" means I sweat ​

@jon thank you Jon! People keep recommending Tailscale to me... I will definitely read your piece and look into it.I just figured out how to turn on the Firewall for my Hetzner server, where I have Docker installed.One thing at a time ​

@gdr @boelder oh my! 🫤

@growfediverse haha thank you! ️ I’m planning to install Docker on my VPS this morning. I’m really excited… will definitely chronicle the whole journey, all the ups and downs…I’m even tempted to take online courses for more formal sysadmin training 🤭
