Does it? On Android, it never asked me to grant location permission unless I try to share my location to another user. Similar with contacts and calendar, it’s working perfectly fine without them. Where exactly does it link those identifiers and with what?
It is, but it’s not recommended for productive use yet. Quote from their newsletter March 2nd:
What about self-hosting?
Several people have asked about using ActivityPub if you’re hosting Ghost elsewhere. Some quick notes about that:
Importantly, Ghost’s ActivityPub service is already out in the wild, open source, and released under the MIT license. We build in public, and all our work is up on GitHub for anyone to download, fork, run or deploy if they want to.
What’s missing right now, mainly, is documentation. You could already self-host ActivityPub if you really wanted to, but there’s a lot you’d need to figure out to get it running properly.
So the question is less “when will it be possible” and more “when will it be easy”?
At the moment we’re moving quickly and making many breaking changes each week which aren’t backwards compatible (like switching to a new DB) – so the app isn’t stable. Even if we did document everything, if you self-hosted then it would just break constantly — so it doesn’t make much sense for us to try to document and promote self-hosting, because it won’t be a good experience for anyone.
Right now we’re prioritising developing the app and building features, deployed in a single location, so we can make progress. Once the app is stable, then we’ll start documenting (and optimizing) the process of deploying it and hosting it elsewhere.
We’re hoping to get to that work some time this summer, and we’ll share details of that here, as we go. Our first priority is just getting ActivityPub working and stable with a base feature set.
Search currently includes OpenLibrary and Inventaire, plus some more I think but I’m not sure right now.
That doesn’t mean a Browser plug-in couldn’t be useful ofc, but Bookwyrm is not limited to what it’s users manually add - even though, through federation, that’s quite a lot already.
OL reviews are not pulled, just the book data
Echt? War so vor zehn Jahren als ich ausgelernt hab (Fachinformatiker) alles andere als selbstverständlich. Im Handwerk waren Azubis da auch gerne einfach billige Arbeitskräfte.
Thanks a lot for your response! I too was a bit misguided by the way Proxmox presents LXCs but I’m mostly on VMs and haven’t explored LXCs further so far.
What’s your motivation for the switch? Second time in a short while I’ve heard about people migrating to incus.
That sounds so cool! Not using any tracking/nav devices other than my phone but currently my routes just stay local without having any kind of management for them.
Cool to have it ready anyways! Does it federate? You can use all sorts of dev-support groups etc.
Oh, sounds pretty cool, I have never looked into that.
Hell yeah! Still got Pinepods on my to-host list.
Google calendar? In the selfhosting community? Bold statement😄
You can have the best of both worlds - scheduled auto updates on a time that usually works for you.
With growing complexity, there are so many components to update, it’s too easy to miss some in my experience. I don’t have everything automated yet (in fact, most updates aren’t) but I definitely strive towards it.
I think auto update is perfectly fine, just check out what kind of versioning the devs are using and pin the part of the version that will introduce breaking changes.
Did that as well a while ago and generally it’s working pretty good, some services had the possibility to migrate existing accounts to authentik even. But even though it’s been pretty reliable so far I’m hesitant to migrate my more critical services behind another runtime dependency.
Cool! Home Assistant has it and I can imagine Nextcloud as well but those are overkill just for that.
Don’t have a good guide, but in addition on the thing you plan to selfhost yourself you need to decide where it’s supposed to run. In a rented VM from a hoster? There are several ones where you can get a decent VM for a few bucks each month.
Nowadays, Docker (or containers in general) are very popular, as an alternative to directly installing services on the vm. They make many things easier, but it’s another thing to learn about when you’re just starting - fortunately, there’s plenty of guides etc!
Yes
I don’t know all of the tools, do you mean the tor relay?
Exactly - but since they seem to open the beta to their customers already I’d assume there won’t be that many breaking changes, but I wouldn’t rely on it already. Considering using it on a testdomain
