1000 down and 100 up for ca 40 euro a month

For s3 iDrive e2 is cheaper. It costs 4$ per month, if you pay monthly and down to ca 3$, if you pay yearly.

The egress policy is mostly the same as backblaze. You get 3 times the storage you pay for. With backblaze you get 3 times the average amount of data you have stored.

Down for me as well

I selfhost PhotoPrism.

I use a folder sync app, to upload all my pictures from my phone to a directory on my server, which PhotoPrism imports from every 15 mins(Might be a bit more or less).

I have used it for a couple of years and it has worked fine for me.

In Germany on a hetzner dedicated server.

You(and everyone else) are welcome at endlesstalk.org.

I prioritize uptime and have setup monitoring to notify, if anything goes down(See here). I have no problem banning/defederating Nazi’s and the like, but I generally don’t take action unless, an instance/users aren’'t following the rules. I’m open for requests and discussion though.

Currently I’m the only admin, but I’m in the process of changing the setup of the site, so other admins would be able to fix the site, if anything should happen.

My instance endlesstalk.org is hosted in Germany via Hetzner, so that should fit the bill.

Defederations are only done, when it would have a negative effect on the instance’s users, but I’m always open to discuss, if anyone disagrees with a deferation.

Anyone is welcome to join my instance at endlesstalk.org. Its running on a pretty beefy server, so it can take a decent amount of users.

There are multiple frontends like lemmy.world and I have setup a seeder(lemmony), so the all feed should be pretty filled.

About 2 months, 62 comments, 17 post. The post are mostly server updates for my instance though.

Still a big improvement over reddit though, since I just lurked there. Think I have more comments now, than in all my 9 years on reddit.

Photoprism

I have a younger sister and we get along fine. We take a couple of vacations together with our father each year and also meet up once in a while, when it is possible.

After hosting my own instance with just me for ca. 2 weeks:

1.99Gi pictrs

5.21Gi postgres

The internal path, I’m persisting is /mnt, but I also use an older version of pictrs(0.3.1). Think the newer version uses a different path.

I also needed to add the following for the pictrs container to work correctly.

  securityContext:
    runAsUser: 991
    runAsGroup: 991
    fsGroup: 991

For container orchestration, which is mostly what k8s provides, then you could use docker swarm or nomad. You could use docker-compose with multiple replicas of the wanted container + a load balancer to divide the load.

In general I don’t think k8s/k3s is needed for hosting lemmy yet, but since I have a setup for k3s, it is easier for me to use it.

I have only 1 container of pictrs running(with no scaling) and are using longhorn for storage, so if the pictrs container switches node, then longhorn handles it for me.

You can definitely have high availibillity without kubernetes, but its easier(For me atleast) with kubernetes.

My instance has 2 users. The domain name is endlesstalk.org

I host it on a k3s cluster with 2 nodes.

When I joined Lemmy I decided I wanted to engange with the community here on Lemmy, since I on Reddit I just lurked, so I’m much more active here.

My setup is running in k8s.

I have autorestic running in a container in a pod. The container mounts the volumes from the pod, I want to have backed up. It then runs every 6 hours(easily changed via a cron expression).

The config in autorestic describes the backends(servers), that it should backup to. Currently I have 3 servers, that it is backing everything up to.

I have also added extra functionallity to autorestic, to make it create a dump of a database before the backup runs.

I ran into the issue on my instance as well, but checking the Captcha option in admin settings, stopped the signups for me.
