It seems to work, but it keeps throwing pictrs related errors, so it's not really built for it

It barely works on my old version of lemmy, probably fixed now then. It would be nice if there was a was to turn that off and only use pictrs only for locally uploaded images. Since I'm the only person here caching isn't too important.
I wonder if I could shut pictrs down and only use an external image hosting for images?

Lemmy sometimes caches remote content in pict-rs. It's a bit broken so you usually don't see it, but it does do it occasional

Related, What about a personal instance only I use? I can choose what communities I want but I can't control what is posted on those communities. Someone could post something illegal to a beehaw community (and have) and the mods remove it, but does the deletion of images and posts federate? In know matrix keeps copies of every deleted file in a room on all homeservers, what about lemmy?

I just grep'd the nginx access log for the lemmy.world IP address and looked at the access times. you can see if it's timing out is the response code is 400. sadly ~57% of the requests are currently timing out today. it seems to work for a bit then time out for about 10 minutes, at least there is some coming through now, before the requests had stopped completely.

lemmy.ml is also back in my logs. yay
lemmy.ml is almost perfect on the timeouts, so they must have managed to fix it.

It's only been a few minutes but I'm seeing non timing out federation in my nginx access log. Hopefully it keeps working.
Also at least on my instance, lemmy.ml has completely broken, I'm not getting anything from it at all anymore. it dropped out at 13:52:22 and besides a couple few messages it's been silence since then. It seems to be working on lemmy.world so I'm not sure what's causing that.

Download ML thing.
make new venv.
pip install -r requirements.txt.
pip can't find the right versions.
pip install --update pip.
pip still can't find the right versions.
install conda.
conda breaks for some reason.
fix conda.
install with conda.
pytorch won't compile with CUDA support.
install 2,000,000GB of nvidia crap from conda.
pytorch still won't compile.
install older version of gcc with conda.
pytorch still won't compile.
reinstall the entire operating system with debian 11.
apt can't find shitlib-1.
install shitlib-2.
it's not compatible with shitlib-1.
compile it from source.
automake breaks.
install debian 10.
It actually works.

You can get even lower! hello world in 512 bytes:

I have a stupid overcomplicated networking script that never works. So every time i set up a new server I need to fix a myriad of weird issues I've never seen before. Usually I setup a server with a keyboard and mouse because SSH needs networking, if it's a cloud machine its the QEMU console or hundreds of reboots.

Don't worry, just my stupid bot being broken. !wave

 

I don't know if renting a dedicated server goes against the point of selfhosting but whatever.
Everyone seems to recommend hetzner on reddit because they are cheaper, but OVH seems to be much cheaper that hetzner for low end servers, especially the Kimsufi and So You Start ranges.

This is the server I was looking at with OVH:
CPU : Intel Xeon D1520 - 4c/8t - 2.2 GHz/2.6 GHz
Memory : 32 GB DDR4 ECC
Storage : 4 x 2 TB HDD SATA Soft RAID
Public bandwidth : 250 Mbps
Price: £26.66 per month.

hetzner seems to start a lot higher with specs, but I don't need 64GB of ram and a 1Gb/s internet connection, The instance I am posting this from is the lowest spec kimsufi possible with an intel atom and 4GB of RAM and that is running lemmy and mastodon fine.

Is there something else bad about OVH that I am missing? (other than the flammable servers)
