  • In regards to email hosting.

    It is not about hosting the server on your own infrastructure, it is about having there code to host it out have another provider.

    There are a lot of email providers!

    Also, if you look at the way Lemmy works, it is the same as emails. If they federate a community, the data is kept on both the original server and the federated one, so you duplicate to m the data, similar to an email server.

    It is an interesting concept, and maybe the score should just reduce down to brush categories, like fully decentralized, potential decentralized, neither, partially centralized, fully centralized.

    Then we won’t nitpick on the school l score too much?



















  • I have had some Uqiquiti gear become end of life, then no longer supported in the Unifi app, which, well is a problem as that was my AP’s for home. I don’t like the forced obsolescence.

    One of my colleagues loves the TP-Link Omada system, which provide similar functionality, and since Ubiquiti did me dirty with the changes, i am considering changing over. I believe the TP-Link gear is a bit cheaper too.

    Either way, i would go for a prosumer/small office type setup, so that you can do all the fun things us selfhosted want, but not necessarily need :D


  • i used dockStarter for a while, but ultimately moved away from it to roll my own docker-compose. This was a few years ago though.

    For me, i always want to make it fit with how i want to run my server, so a lot of the times i wanted to adjust the settings. The other big thing is that I always find services not in the library, so need to learn it anyway.

    There is nothing (i dont think) stopping you from doing both!
