Self hosting: real game starts today

@selfhosted

So, it's done: my main domain has finally got its transfer to Hostinger, new provider where I have the VPS I'm experimenting in.

Real game with WordPress multisite/multilingual and self-hosted Fediverse starts TODAY!

Who tf starts with hand written pages? I always heard nextcloud, WordPress or the like.

vim index.html

<html><header><title>Welcome</title></header> 
<body><h1>Welcome</h1>  
<p>Here's my random thoughts and links I keep forgetting  
</body></html>

:wq

Why would I want to learn wordpress, much less spin up a database, for that?

Nothing wrong with that, just not what many people are doing these days in my experience.

@tofu @khleedril /me sits on a rocking chair

listen, young grasshopper, back in my time we didn't have this wordpress thing you're talking about, nevermind nextcloud. back in my time if you wanted to host an homepage you had to write your html by hand, with a dip pen, on parchment, uphill in the snow!

ok, I may be mixing up things a bit, but you don't have to be that old to have started self hosting pages when wordpress didn't exist and the alternatives were writing html directly with a text editor or, a few years later, using some kind of graphical editor that saved pretty bad html pages you could load on the server like your handwritten ones.

(or you have to be old, and I am old :D )

I do remember those times as well! Shady free webspaces where you could host some pages and images. But I haven't seen people doing that a lot in the recent years.

To be fair there is also a lot wrong with me.

I'm starting with hand-written pages.
