Hello SelfHosted!
I have recently setup my own free tier oracle VPS and am looking to get my feet wet with some simple services that I can host on there to get started.
I should mention I have successfully setup SSH with the private key so that part is good to go.
Any ideas are welcome!
Searx NG worked well for me. I currently have Matrix running on another, set up with the ansible docker repo. Actually trying to set lemmy up on another.
I converted to pay as you go so they would open up the smtp ports so I could use postmoogle with Matrix but i still only use the always free shapes and still havent incurred a charge in roughly 6 months
Sounds cool! Could you link to matrix? Looking up matrix as you can imagine provides a lot of movie related results lol
https://matrix.org/ is what you’re after.
https://matrix.org/
https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy is the ansible docker deploy. Absolutely bloody amazing. They have a chat-GPT bot available for install now as well, though you’ll need a premium API key to use it.
That’s a great idea, I have my SearXNG instance running on my local box but moving that and some other low computer/storage stuff there would at least make my home network more secure.
