@hybridsarcasm@lemmy.world has not replied to me (or anyone according to his profile) after that last bit about making me and @ayyy@sh.itjust.works mods, so I’m going to go ahead and work on holding down the fort. Its a bit of a hectic weekend for me with activities for my kids, so you may see some post activity being restored or other such things in no particular order.

So who am I?

Well, I’m a specialist consultant by day, and an avid self-hoster. Off the top of my head, I host:

  • Jellyfin
  • An over-complicated *arr stack to suit my particular tastes of media management
  • Prometheus+Loki+Grafana for my monitoring stack
  • Home Assistant
  • Personal website
  • Immich
  • MagicMirror
  • ROMM for that fun emulation on the go
  • Kavita (mostly because I keep forgetting to change the url on my wife’s phone for the other OPDS server) & Calibre (the other OPDS)
  • Local AI models for testing purposes mostly
  • Endurain for my post-Strava life
  • Various stuff for utility for SSO, LDAP, databases, MQTT, so on and so forth

Predominantly running on Proxmox as LXCs, with some docker here and there. So pretty much the same as a lot of you, just another *selfhoster (edit: WHOOPS! I a whole word there, now fixed)

Moderation Style

Lets call it “light touch”. I’m pretty sure everyone here is more than capable of handling most things with the appropriate votes - we’ve seen this with the recent thread that resulted in this moderation change. In case you couldn’t also guess from my home instance, I’m a firm believer in people being able to regulate themselves, so as far as I’m concerned that means the rules themselves can be up for discussion as well. As this community is on lemmy.world, of course that means the TOS here must be respected.

There are people on both sides of the keyboards, so please be respectful of others.

The one thing that I just do not tolerate is bigotry.

And finally, feel free to send me a message to address any issues! So lets have some fun with self-hosting.

Edit: Added a direct link to the Lemmy.world TOS for clarity. This community is on Lemmy.world and subject to its terms, as managed by the admin team.

    That’s got to about the most straightforward thing I’ve heard on the internet in a very long while, and <clears throat nervously> and from a mod. No disrespect intended, at all. It’s quite respectable. You say ‘light touch’ and ‘people being able to regulate themselves’…have…you…met these people? I kid, but I’m sure that’s where the TOS comes in which is forthcoming or am I just being stupid again and overlooked it? I mean, I see rules

    Respectable stack as well. At any rate, good to meet you. Thank you for your clarity.

      Sure have! Everyone can be quite opinionated, and I personally love it. Different opinions, even strong ones on both sides, can make for fantastic discussions on specific needs and preferences that I think make for great reads.

      As long as the discussion stays a discussion and doesn’t devolve into a slapfight or something. Which does make me want to suggest the disengage rule of the FAF here, but considering what I have seen of the modlog so far it hasn’t really been an issue anyway.

      The TOS I refer to is the Lemmy.world TOS which I have zero control over. The rules that I suggested are up for changes are the ones in the sidebar here, and the biggest on the docket is rule 3 which inspired the recent meta thread (and caused confusion about what was actually going on around here).
