RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW

I have an nginx server with WordPress where I post my own poetry, for no one to see. Also the subdomains I use for some self-hosted stuff.

Yeah! audiovalentine.com I use it as a personal blog and a portfolio of all the music I've produced over the years. Very indie web feel. Hoping to expand it to more topics and uses. And it's on the fediverse!

I love the look of it, federated blogging is such a neat idea!

What software do you use to do this? WriteFreely?

It's WordPress running on a Raspberry Pi with Yunohost.

Yep. It’s full of resources for people with the same illness as me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Yep, though it's currently just a portfolio site I link to in applications.

Plus also some selfhosting (jitsi, personal mailserver + webmail and contacts+calendar), though most other stuff is on a second domain and pointed at my home.

I just use a domain for minetest/mineclone for my kids and I to play anywhere in the world, I still get random calls from call centers asking if I need help designing my website. Took me way to long to realize I'm supposed to mark the site as personal at the registrar.

I would but getting ssl working is a pain, and browsers whinge if you're on http.

I just started coding my own website and hosting it with Codeberg Pages.

After years of navigating between different services that never satisfied me and were too expensive for what they offered, I decided that I might just do it myself. It's very basic html/css/js but at least it's almost free, lightweight, and looks the way I want.

I'm a freelance graphic designer so it's mostly a way to host a preview of my projects, and have a printable webpage that contains my resume. I'm considering adding more basic html pages as blog posts and case studies.

I have a main page that is generated from a bash script but provides very little content. Then I have a bunch of sub domains hosting my services: media server, blog, photo gallery, podcasts, Firefox etc

I current host four domains with five websites, if that’s how I should describe them. One as my professional site, one database I’m working on for my research, one fun blog, lemmy, one genealogy database for myself. For the work one I post small write ups about research and the tools I use. For the fun one idk her, just wrote some self hosting stuff so far.
