Meeeeet #Yunohost!
An amazing web interface like system that let you install a whole library of free open source software with a few clicks.
You’ll only need 1 command line to get it working on a VPS!
curl https://install.yunohost.org | bash
I am a Yunohost enjoyer. I’m just running AdGuard on it for now, but I’m planning on setting up a personal Lemmy instance as well.
Niceeee! Little /warning/, I believe the media hosting doesn’t work via the Yunohost install. At least not a little while back
Yes, I believe that is still the case. I found guides to install Docker on a Yunohost/Debian server and another guide to install Lemmy on Docker, so we’ll see if I can figure it out.
My little self-hosting win this weekend was to finally sort out the typical email issues. Yunohost makes it easy to use an SMTP relay.
Friendly reminder that piping curl/wget to a shell is dangerous: https://0x46.net/thoughts/2019/04/27/piping-curl-to-shell/
It’s one of those tools that’s in a weird niche. If you need to use it you probably shouldn’t be exposing services to the internet. If you’re trying to learn it’s not going to teach you much. If you don’t need it you won’t use it anyway.
