Interesting, I used to help on the bionic side a long time ago.

I thought it was quite heavy on resources? What are they doing on the docker side to help out? Limiting the CPU?

Yep take a look, theres quite a few examples, but they use Github Actions, CircleCI, Gitlab etc… etc…

Most CI/CD that use the above-ish model will use the same kinda scripts (bash or otherwise). Basically if you can do it on your desptop, you can automate it on a server. Make it work first, then try to make it better.

Most of the time, ill throw my Docker/Docker Compose (and/or terraform if need be) on the root of the repo and do the same steps I do on the development side for building/testing on the CI side. Then switch over to CD with either a new machine (docker build/ compose) or throw it all on a new server. At that point, if you script it out correctly, it doesnt really matter what kind of server you use for CI/CD, since they are all linux boxes at the end of the day.

You can also mix it up by using bare metal, docker alternatives, different password managers, QA tools, linters, etc…etc…

But virtualization will get you quite far. In my opinion start with just trying to get the project to build on another server via a script from scratch, then transfer it over to the CI. Then go with testing/deployment.

GL!

Yep we do that at work-ish. Ci/CD is really good.

Yeah I was thinking of adding swap as my other systems have lots more.

This is just the default on yunohost.

Might not be, it’s just strange.

My other Linux machines use much less but have more space designated to SWAP. And using Linux for as long as I have, swap space is usually reserved when there is a huge increase in ram usage.

I’m not sure if the hard requirement of using openai is good for an open source projects. It requires a somewhat hidden closed source source for the main functionality.

GL! One of my favorite open source projects!

Calibre can also be a server. https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/server. I use it all the time with my library.

I use the Voice app on Fdriod but it doesnt do syncing that I know about. I fully recommend instead of using Audible.

If you dont own the files, then you dont really own the media.

For updates yeah. I used to run it with docker and just about every other major update would break it. Then I went to bare metal…still broke. Now I have it on yunohost and its…better. Its only broken once last year. But heavy backups is how I deal with it.

Yep. I like next cloud much better.

If you want an easy way to host, yunohost can be a good place to start.

Ive used this in the past to host an email server. Eventually, my ISP actually stopped allowing people to use mail ports, so I had to discontinue. But it worked very well when I used it many years ago.

That would be cool. Closest I have is just a pinned link via Firefox.

I’ve had more luck finally throwing docker on it and letting it sit on an excising yunohost.

Sure! Truthfully, unless it’s dead simple I’m going to let others host.

I tried getting it setup but it didn’t want to work on my system. The docker container didn’t work with some errors and the docs seem like they need a bit of work. I love piefed, but if it takes more than a weekend to setup then I personally don’t have enough time.

Great software though.

I’m starting to see mastodon users on my tiny pixelfed server. It’s such a good feeling.

On the sad side, my Lemmy update went south and I had to remove it off my setup. Still looking for a good replacement for max two users. Something dirt simple like GoToSocial turned out to be.

I dont :) Mostly.

Honestly I have an auto backup system. And then set it up to auto update periodically. Then use Debian Server as it almost never breaks as a server distro.

Nice!!
