Moving from Contabo to Hetzner www.tiotrom.com/2023/10/moving…
I fucking did it! Fuck you Cuntabo! I got a better server now. I am so happy to finally do this step after months and months of preparations and plans.
Done!

•Yes, I have already started to migrate my services to a #self-hosted home server.
... show moreAs you use #yunohost for masses, I wanted to know how you handle #emails for these big players, my emails never land in their inbox?
What about #security? How do you get your audience to not use weak passwords?
And I really wanted to know how you manage the backup with those super powers that you mentioned - YNH + #Borg + #Timeshift?

So, I installed a heavy machine that I will share with some of my friends to self-host.
It has #yunohost installed.
Now, the problem is that I need to merge three of my servers into one on this machine. I think I can manage it because I know the structure of YunoHost.
I really want to know if #docker is ready for self-hosting and is there a good guide for setting up the server?

Home self-hosting is a really cool idea. I could do it too but I do not plan to stay in one place for that long. As for your questions: the emails seem to work just fine. You have to make sure that your IP is not blacklisted. YNH will show your that in the Diagnosis. I do not do anything else more than that. Ah, well, try to not host invidious, searx or the like because they ping google and such services too many times and your ip will get blocked.
Security: for us we use 2FA for everything important and SSH keys. For the users is up to them to keep their stuff secure.
Backups: we have a borgbase.com account and setup Borg with YNH to backup there, daily. Very easy to setup via YNH. I make sure to get an email after the backups are done to make sure they work well. For our TROM.tf server it takes around 3-4 hours to backup, every day. The backups are incremental so it only backups up what is not already backed-up. As for Timeshift do sudo apt install timeshift to install then timeshift --help to know how to use it. Is quite easy.

•My #ISP does not offer to change r-DNS records, which is one of the factors they check for good IP reputation. Also, my country has a bad reputation for #spamming, so they have banned geographical networks. I have never seen my #emails arrive in their inboxes.

I have always been compromised by the weak passwords kept by the users and then the email spamming happens. #yunohost does not have #2FA yet, other applications like #nextcloud, #bitwarden, etc have it. Do you offer these services independently from Yunohost's core services?
I am very impressed with the #brog as a backup solution. I will be installing it soon. Thank you for your good work.

Ah yes that's an issue....
By the "users" you mean the YNH users? We only have a handful and none is admin but me. Our users for our services are not connected to YNH. So not using LDAP.

•If they are not connected to #yunohost #ldap then there is no problem.
