I currently don’t have much time to put into hobbies, but I did some gardening/landscaping during a break in the rain last weekend. Felt great to get out and move around. Garden finally is put to bed for the winter (or what’s left of it).

    Selfhosting via local servers is my fav thing recently. Learning Linux, file management, safe backups, how to host services privately and publically, FOSS and free alternatives to normal everyday software. The list of benefits go on

        I turned votes off on my instance because I find them toxic… case in point I guess.

        The whole reason I’m here is because I thought Lemmy makes more sense than Reddit for someone who likes selfhosting :) isn’t that the whole point of the fediverse lol

          Well, you got a bunch of upvotes and just the one down vote, so I think you’re right (only disclosing in case you were worried, won’t do it again if I see you around 😉

            Haha, kind of you to be thoughtful like that! :)

            It is always hurtful when one gets randomly downvoted or attacked

        True, that is why I’m here. I don’t care about the Reddit api nonsense or hate Reddit just saw a comment asking why the Donald could selfhost but not selfhosting selfhost

        Reminds me of a year and a half ago when !selfhosted was the biggest/most active community (or close to it).

      Nice. Yeah, I do that a bit. I’ve got some media services like plex, jellyfin and calibre. I run Caddy for reverse proxy. I’ve got immich for photos. Nextcloud for files. A couple websites.

      I’ve been looking for a good FOSS budget tracker…seems like local gnuCash is still the best. Also looking to get a good system for android backups. Currently I just backup photos and files, but it would be cool to do full image backups.
