Unfortunately died last year

so… it can not be FreeBSD? :)

Wait aren’t the system requirements for Mailcow crazy high? How can you run it + other software on a mere Pi? Also: do you have a static IP?

using google is not what i’d call free

Do you mean local communities? If not, I do not understand your statement.
Also: can you explain how searching for communities is worse on smaller instances than on large ones? That does not make sense to me and does not reflect my experience at all.

I‘m all with you on the beehaw topic, but please keep in mind to recommend smaller instances to newbies, because that‘s what federation is all about. Aside from load distribution (lots of instances are run by individuals or groups on small(ish) machines), you can avoid being independent on single large entities keeping their uptime etc.

TLDR: recommend smaller instances for load distribution to get the best out of a federated world!

whut u sill doing in that dark place

• whats your opinion on selfhosting mail servers?
• why have you chosen baikal over radicale?
• are you happy with filestash? im torn between filestash and filebrowser

• Nextcloud, mainly for calendars and contacts; occasionally for sharing files with others.
• Syncthing for syncing files.

Quick question: have you thought about hosting Radicale and filebrowser instead of NextCloud? I think that would be definetly lighter on your system.

Also: I have read lots of mixed opinions whether mailservers should be selfhosted - what is your take on this? Do you know about problems reaching the big player mailservers?

It points to the lemmy instance the post has been published on. It is useful if you want to share a generic link to a post with someone and maybe don’t want to share the information on what instance you created your account on, because the other permalink button always references to the instance of your account.
