The easiest way to get started is using Docker. You can self-host most software using Docker straight from their Github with one command or copy-paste config.
Do NOT expose (Port forward/NAT) your services to the internet if you don't know what you're doing. Use it locally using IP:port. If you want to use your services remotely, use a VPN tunnel like Wireguard (Available on Android and iOS too). Modern routers already support it out of the box. Tailscale is also an option.
Later down the road when you start exposing services, I can recommend NPM as your proxy for easy host and certificate management. Expose as little as possible! For added security when exposing applications to the internet, expose your port using a VPS or Cloudflare and tunnel to your home using Tailscale or Wireguard.
To not get overwhelmed you should start small and improve as you go. You don't need to start with a datacenter in your garage right away. The most important thing is that you have fun along the way :)
Great projects to get started:
So you are a Russian troll.
Another Russian troll...
Are you a Russian troll?
That's what I said. It's pretty involved. And their Discord is extremely toxic. The most toxic Discord I have ever seen from a FOSS project. But when you get it up and running, it's great. Just pray nothing breaks.
I used all three tools. Pufferpanel was by far the easiest to setup. But it's mostly limited to Minecraft servers.
If you're familiar with Docker and want something with UI for easy management of configs, plugins and server console, you might like Pterodactyl Panel, Pelican Panel or Pufferpanel. The easiest one to setup is Pufferpanel. Pterodactyl is more involved but you're flexible to host other game servers too if you want to.
Unpopular opinion: I love this feature. Doesn't take up too much screen real-estate. You can scroll right past it when it isn't good. But when it's good, it's actually useful.
Is this NewYork?
Thanks for the civilized discussion. Have a nice day to you too.
You people are delusional to not understand that intellectual property is the fundamental basis of our world economy, and also your job. Elliminate all IP you'll get an iPhone that's priced at $20. What is your recommendation for a communistic society where nobody will get rewarded for creativity and ingeneuity? How would that work exactly? I'm listening.
You can buy the ebooks from Kobo or the like and strip out the DRM using Calibre.
Shitte practices by Amazon are no justification to let it all out on the authors. Amazon literally doesn't care whatsoever if you don't buy a book there. However, the author might need to feed their family dry bread today.
Nazism, formally named National Socialism, is the far-right totalitarian socio-political ideology and practices associated with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in Germany.
You Americans need to stop using strong words you have no idea about. You can call him far-right douchebag.
Apparently they changed their policy on self-hosting. Last I checked they explicitly said that you can self-host (with a very complicated incomplete documentation) but it's not intended to be self-hosted. He also said various other things that caught my attention but I don't remember the details.
I'll look at this more closely and see whether I like it.
Terrible video calls. No screenshare last I checked. UI feels dated.
It's not meant to be selfhosted. And it's not federated either. I don't trust this. The developer seems very shady.
It's a good company?
Delusional. There's like 100 users on Lemmy. Reddit has grown its userbase this year.
