  • Voor mij werkt de zoekmachine (Google) nog steeds het beste, en snelst. Al eens geprobeerd om SearXNG te gebruiken maar dat vond ik toch niet zo fijn.

    Moet eigenlijk wel eens weer andere proberen denk ik, zal vooral wennen zijn uiteindelijk.

  • Something like DigitalOcean or Hetzner will set you back a max of 10 euros a month. But that does require some technical know how with a terminal.

    Would that suffice, or are you looking for something more ‘UI Based’ that will manage it for you?

  • Don’t really have a recommendation about which, but I do about how.

    For repositories that I deem important, either for practical or nostalgia reasons, I use Gitea to keep an up to date clone. I believe most self hosted Git solutions offer a similar functionality, like Gitlab has one too that I’m aware of.

  • Een klein beetje wel en niet, want ik vind het lastig om ‘Amerika’ de ‘schuld’ te geven wanneer er zoveel inwoners zijn.

    Echter ben ik wel kritischer geworden in mijn eigen vrijheid, zoals bijvoorbeeld stoppen met regulier sociale netwerken die vooral beheerd worden door Amerikaanse bedrijven.

    YouTube en Google gaan bijvoorbeeld wel lastig worden voor mij.

  • My worry is that these social media alternatives might get scraped by these AI companies as well.

    Sure, a company handing it over is much easier (i.e. Reddit). But with the decentralized nature, everyone needs to protect their instances themselves, which I’m not sure how well everyone will be capable of doing that.

    Definitely much more difficult, so it’s a step in the right direction.

  • This is the primary reason I've not given agents more power than something extremely controlled (I.e. only a function to turn on/off the lights). As I was always concerned that these generational models might accidentally do something dumb or annoying, let alone something that might be illegal or harmful.

    I don't really see how anyone would ask AI to complete something completely autonomously at this stage, without oversight.

  • First of all: take a breath!

    Pihole is a great start, and an awesome piece of software. As self-hosting is quite broad, there are quite a few options, so I have two suggestions that should still be relatively simple to continue with, and that I thoroughly enjoyed when getting started.

    1. Webservers: Something like Caddy, NGINX or Apache (Caddy being likely the simplest choice here), will allow you host your own website! If you open a port on your router, this website can also be accessed remotely (be careful! Without SSL, you should not expose any forms, to avoid those being leaked). A bit outside the realm of "self-hosting" — but Cloudflare allows you to setup SSL with relative ease and also allows you to link a domain your website.
    2. Game Servers: Many options in this space, so take a pick for a game you like! I am an avid minecraft enjoyer, and regularly setup modded servers to play with my friends. You can find some more info here on how to get started with a Minecraft server implementation called "Fabric"

    Have fun! And if there is something more specific you're curious about, feel free to ask 😀
