Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

it works fine, depending on popularity of your instance - you might have to add more resources in the future.
as for aarch64 - there are docker images available for lemmy and lemmy-ui
Thanks, I’ll hope to not use docker though - planning to run NixOS, which has a module for it.
Just double checked, the nixpkgs for lemmy-ui and lemmy-server have aarch64-linux support B)
i have not used NixOS yet, not sure how easy to setup it on Oracle OCI, but i guess you will do fine ;)
Let’s hope this helps.
You were right :) look at my username! Installation was very interesting - using
kexecto swap the current loaded kernel to a NixOS live image, and installing it right over the current system surprisingly worked flawlessly. One reboot for an entire install (I might end up writing a post in [email protected] about it).Setting up lemmy was a bit more difficult though, as the lemmy module is currently in the middle of a pull request to improve it, so I had to do some hacky trickery.
Oh seriously? That kinda stopped me from hosting my own. Got a link?
you can find them on docker hub - https://hub.docker.com/r/dessalines/lemmy
Ah I thought you might be referring to someone building their own image based on the Lemmy repos, because those give me exec errors when I start them on my OCI
i used to compile then using Dockerfile in https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/Dockerfile - probably you can use those commands on nixOS as well.
