I didn’t like twitter before so I didn’t really get into mastodon

I kind of get the urge to talk to a lot of people about it

I got it to work properly, would like to message from that isntance but this post isn’t federated

I just hate that it automatically changes a word to something it thinks I wanted to type instead of just suggesting a spelling

I can always get a different domain and host it again from the start, but i got one now

Will try that soon

I was talking more about dyndns in my router but i think you mean something different. Could you explain what dns records are please?

I have no real prior self hosting experience just some starter projects for raspi, but now I’m a bit more determined as i saw how many people are ready to help me from this thread

Thank you so much the ones from the docs just confused me even more. Does NGinx work on the same device or is that just useless

Yeah, i want to do it as a challenge for myself and maybe a teaching experience. I have tried a few times today and i always got stuck on putting the thing together in docker because all the tutorials are too old or they aren’t complete. I am unsure in a few topics about the DNS and setup thing but i think i might try to do it again tomorrow after the frustration of failure of today is gone and i have some more motivation. Is it okay if i just ask my questions to you directly in this thread?

Do you mean DynDNS with the automatic updates?

Doing it with your phone is also great if you have a solid case. You can do it with your hand if you have a ring that isn’t soft like gold or silver

The person seems quite serious with it in the other comments
