If only everything wasn't a fucking political statement then people wouldn't bitch about the technology a person or company chooses to use. But no. If you use crypto, then that means that you are pandering to the evil ancaps or the dissident right, and you are a climate denier.

I really wanna try self-hosting some stuff (#PeerTube, #Owncast and a personal site), but figuring out what to rent and how to do it, for someone who does not know anything about web-development?

It's just too much :sadmsn:

I guess I'll have to try and do one at a time, but I would prefer to be able to set it all up using something like #YunoHost, so I can have all the services on one VPS.
