I’m seeing several, albeit short, downtimes on my PDS instance, based on my #UptimeKuma monitor. Is it really my #VPS? Or #Bluesky related?

@keet if #Docker is your cup of tea, I think you’ll likely have #SearXNG going easily following @ironicbadger video: www.youtube.com/∞

Installing Pixelfed with Docker Compose

Quick notes on installing Pixelfed using Docker Compose

I wish it were just so simple to selhost Pixelfed. This post actually refers to the zknt’s Docker image, which hope to make the process simpler. I still have to try this out, though.

@nilesh This is interesting. Eager to see full feature comparison of #Teable vs. #NoCoDB, especially since NocoDB appears to be hiding several features behind a paywall.

Nevertheless, glad to see improvements among these #Airtable alternative.

@defaultvlan I can only speak for #NoCoDB, as I have it running currently, although not actively using it. It’s easy to self-host with its docker compose documentation. It also got a good API documentation.

I’m getting this notice when editing my #GoToSocial post/status on #Phanpy:

STATUS EDITS ARE NOT CURRENTLY SUPPORTED IN GOTOSOCIAL (coming in 2024) You can review the original text of your status below, but you will not be able to submit this edit.

It’s 2025 already. I hope editing status feature will be supported soon on GoToSocial.

@elgosz I agree. Too bad it’s not so easy to run your own instance of #Elk.

10:35

Too bad, #Elk as a Fediverse front-end interface looks sleek. Guess I’ll have to stick to #Phanpy for the meantime.

10:33

I can’t seem to run my own instance of #Elk. Currently there’s no #Docker image, you have to build with the Dockerfile. The error: ERROR [elk builder 11/11] RUN pnpm build. Hoping for a simpler install next time, and a Docker image please that we can just pull. github.com/∞

Elk: A nimble Mastodon web client

In order to host Elk yourself you can use the provided Dockerfile to build a container with elk. Be aware, that Elk only loads properly if the connection is done via SSL/TLS. The Docker container itself does not provide any SSL/TLS handling. You’ll have to add this bit yourself. One could put Elk behind popular reverse proxies with SSL Handling like Traefik, NGINX etc.

An alternative to Phanpy, which also works with GoToSocial instances. At least this looks more robust than Phanpy. Gotta deploy one soon.

Edit: Wasn’t able to deploy successfully. Sad.
