I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Hello nerds, another #GoToSocial bugfix release :) Turns out 0.18.2 wasn't the last one after all.

https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.18.3

This one fixes a bug with domain subscriptions with orphan adoption, which could cause entries for the subscription to not be created. An important bugfix for island networks that rely on allowlist subscription(s) to keep everyone in the network on the same allowlist(s).

Also small wording changes on the frontend, and a fix for an issue that could cause error messages to be swallowed on startup.

If you're updating to this version from v0.18.0, v0.18.1, or v0.18.2, it's a very easy update with no db migrations or config file changes :)

If you're updating to this version from a version before v0.18.0, please follow the update instructions from v0.18.0, but replace 0.18.0 with 0.18.3 throughout. Be aware that the update to 0.18.x contains some very long migrations. Please do read the notes carefully.

Someone reminded me today 9 years ago I submitted my first post on Mastodon—using curl on the command line, since there was no interface at the time. That's how the journey began! 9 years is a long time to be doing something. Those early years are still fresh in my mind though.

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 89 ✨

Oh #PeerTube, you are making me do mental somersaults as I strategize about the best way to self-host my videos.

This newbie wants to ask: how many VPS’s are too many for someone who has little coding experience and has been self-hosting for just 3 months?

Fedi friends, I’m thinking of signing up for a THIRD VPS 😱

Why?

My current setup:

1️⃣ 5€/month Debian VPS with #YunoHost, where I’m self-hosting #GoToSocial (this account), #Friendica, #Pixelfed, #Fail2Ban and #LinkStack.
2️⃣ 5€/month Ubuntu VPS where I am self-hosting my (upcoming) #Ghost blog (this will make me save a ton, compared to my current Ghost Pro plan).

Back to PeerTube: I could easily upgrade my #Debian VPS and install it there - the costs would be minimal and I would double my RAM and storage. But I am afraid of PeerTube’s consumption when it comes to bandwidth. As in: if I upload a video that for some reason becomes really popular, or if a bad actor decides to DDOS my channel, would that take down all my other self-hosted Fediverse instances? Since they are on the same VPS?

I could limit potential issues by having a dedicated VPS just for PeerTube.

What would you do?

And do you have recommendations for Europe-based VPS’s with affordable plans? (aside from Hostinger) I was thinking of #Hetzner…

I still have lots of work to do on the accessibility front but I'm ready to get naked (sfw!) - in fact I made "no CSS" a theme option on my site to keep me fully aware of any html changes I make!
