Yea, here where I live there is a culture of most jobs being seasonal work, so a good amount of people end up being NEET's for about half a yera or less because of the lack of regular jobs and surplus of seasonal work that's most times only 3-6 month's long.
You could say we are forced to be neet's whenever tourist season isn't ongoing.
I honestly don't believe I will have any legal trouble because I don't do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?
I tend to grow my fleet of servers every couple months, and that requires me to once again setup everything from the beginning, settings, sshd, update debian if old version, new user for ssh, docker/podman, ...
Quite literally added new vps to my fleet yesterday and spent 4 hourson setting all that up, when it could have been a simple ansible script.
I feel like matrix is an overkill for something like this personally, because I wan't to be motly only used for quick help with peple around the globe and matrix is more generally used to communicate with a huge amount of people around the globe.
Main reason also why I didn't go with matrix is because in my eyes it's still inmature and requires a good amount of maintenance, for what I think of as a simply a quick and dirty server to quickly help people in a more real time setting.
I don't mind people not liking the fact that it's a mattermost server and not wanting to sing up only for this community, it's their choice after all.
That's also where your argument from before comes in, as I don't use matrix. Never had an use for it, that's where the conflict for me comes in not wanting to create an account on a platform I don't personally use.
Mattermost I will have an use for personally and with friends, while matrix for me is unnedded and overkill for my needs, that's why I didn't go with matrix, neither on an already established server, or self host it.
It's discord like interface and I plan on only having selfhosted related content on it, mostly just for people to help one another in a more "well known" way of discord and real time chatting.
For me, the plasma 6 implementation misses nothing. Multiple monitors work with no issues, and every program I could run works with no issues.
My main problem is that none of the tiling wayland compositors ( hyprland for example ) work well with multiple monitors. My usecase is to keepcmy laptop's monitor in clamshell mode and just use the external one, but I tend to if I leave for a long time to turn off the monitor since plasma can't turn it off the output for powersaving by itself for weird reasons and plasma 6 kwin will corectly start up on the monitor if I turn it on.
Compositors like hyprland for soke reason won't and will ontly show blank screen and not even allow me to change to another tty, effectively freezing my system.
But I got used to the way plasma works, made it work similary to a tiling wm for the virtual desktops and placing speficifc windows in specific virtual desktop and stuff like that, so I get the benefits of a good stacking (floating) wayland compositor with robust virtual desktops support.
My problem is I only use external minitor and turn off laptop monitor, so when I also turn off the external monitor and then turn it back on hyprlamd just has a stroke.
I recognize this will vary depending on how much you self-host, so I’m curious about the range of experiences from the few self-hosted things to the many self-hosted things....
Minimal, I have to force myself to check the servers for updates atleast once a week.
Main problem for me is I automated podman and docker updates with their respective autoupdate mechanisms and use ntfy for push notifications so I know if a service stops working and I had an update recently on it that it’s an update issue.
Also have uptime monitor wih uptime kuma to monitor state of my services to catch them not working before I do, also ntfy for push notifications.
Also have grafana+prometheus seted up on my biggest server for monitoring and alerting with alertmanager+mail to get notifications on even more errors.
So in general I only have to worry about occasional once every few months error and updates of the host system (debian).
That’s a fine but, as long as the server was hosted at my personal devices, which it isn’t but on a hetzner dedicated box. Which is still better than on shared pc’s.
Main reason cause it’s the easiest to setup as it only need 2 containers.
Edit: Might create a specific team just for selfhosters where people from this lemmy community can talk about posts there, or generally about selfhosting
Edit 2: I have created “Casual selfhosters” team on my mattermost instance, will create a post either later today or tommorow promoting it, but for now will leave an invite link here so feel free to join in and talk about selfhosting!

Yea, matrix is too much for that I need, an dhave seted up a mattermost server for my needs.
Planning to create a selfhosted team on it for the people of this communitty to talk real time about selfhosting and help each other fix issues in a more timelly and easier manner.
Veeble | Webdock | Milesweb | Cloudfanatic | Time4vps | Hetzner | Vpsdime | Zap-hosting I’m looking for cheap VPS options. I’m trying to run Syncthing, a caldev server and maybe a searXng instance as well. Also what would be the catch with cheap VPS providers?
I agree with you, recently moved to hetzner one of my vps’s, ended up costing me almost 2 euro cheaper than vultr + higher specs.
Also have another auction dedicated server with them, which is really amazing for the price it costs me (hosting my lemmy instance/sharkey/… in total about 20 diff services plus a minecraft the 1.12.2 pack server ) the server barelly sees around 20% cpu usage on my grafana dashboard.
So from the point of price/performance hetzner is amazing.

I selfhost an instance of ntfy and changedetecttion.
Ntfy is for simple push notifications from absolutely anything, even just curl.
Changedetection is for detecting changes on websites, prices, is something in stock, … It supports ntfy for push notifications so I just add the releases page from github to changedetection and then I get a push notification on my phone when anything gets an update.
For podcasts I recommend audiobookshelf. It has a very nice podcasts category with ability to backup the podcastst yourself, also syncs progress over multiple devices.

Torrenting exposes your public IP. In a country where government doesn't care, does that pose a risk?
