Hi, new Monero user here. I've recently started to mine some Monero and was wondering where I can spend it in the future. During my research, I've seen some sites saying "Please send enough Monero to cover the transaction fees". What does that mean?

I'll give an example to make my question a bit more clear:

I want to send 1 XMR to a seller. Let's say that the transaction fees are 0.1 XMR as an example. After sending my Monero, does the seller receive 0.9 XMR or are the transaction fees automatically paid with my wallet?

Thanks in advance!

The command you provided for the VPS returns UDP listen needs -p arg, so I just added -p right before the port number and then it worked. Running the homelab command returns no port[s] to connect to... Not good.

Hi, thank you so much for trying to help me, I really appreciate it!

VPS wg0.conf:

[Interface]
Address = 10.0.0.1/24
ListenPort = 51820
PrivateKey = REDACTED

PostUp = iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 '!' --dport 22 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.2; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to-source SERVER_IP
PostUp = iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -i eth0 '!' --dport 55107 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.2;

PostDown = iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 '!' --dport 22 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.2; iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to-source SERVER_IP
PostDown = iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING -p udp -i eth0 '!' --dport 55107 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.2;

[Peer]
PublicKey = REDACTED
AllowedIPs = 10.0.0.2/32

Homeserver wg0.conf:

[Interface]
Address = 10.0.0.2/24
PrivateKey = REDACTED
 
[Peer]
PublicKey = REDACTED
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
PersistentKeepalive = 25
Endpoint = SERVER_IP:51820

(REDACTED would've been the public / private keys, SERVER_IP would've been the VPS IP.)

I want to move away from Cloudflare tunnels, so I rented a cheap VPS from Hetzner and tried to follow this guide. Unfortunately, the WireGuard setup didn't work. I'm trying to forward all traffic from the VPS to my homeserver and vice versa. Are there any other ways to solve this issue?

VPS Info:

OS: Debian 12

Architecture: ARM64 / aarch64

RAM: 4 GB

Traffic: 20 TB

Hey, thank you for your blog post. I'm definitely reconsidering my choices with Cloudflare tunnels. I will take a look at the VPS setup. Privacy is something that I really care about, so this would be pretty useful. I would definitely be ready to pay 3.29€ per month for the privacy aspects of this setup.

I prefer owning my server hardware than renting a VPS. I completely forgot that I couldn't port forward in my home network, so Cloudflare was my last-minute solution to that problem.

Thank you for pointing these things out! I've removed Dockge from Uptime Kuma.

I know, I just added the speed test because I can. If people want to use it, they can.

Hi, you guys might know me from these three posts. After reading all of the comments, I've decided to purchase a Mini PC to host public instances of privacy-respecting services.

I'm here to bring some good news: I got it working perfectly! You can visit reallyaweso.me today and get a list of services that I'm hosting!

All services are deployed via Docker and proxied through Cloudflare. You might ask: "Why Cloudflare?". It's because I can't port forward things on my home network. It really sucks that I'm depending on Cloudflare to do the port forwarding for me, but it is what it is.

If you want me to host a specific service that you want, feel free to comment on this post!

I would really appreciate it if you guys could checkout some services that I'm hosting, as I don't know if everything went smoothly or not. Thank you guys so much for helping me on this journey!!

I've noticed the same thing. Every Intel N100-based machine costs ~200€ on Amazon.

I recently bought a domain from Porkbun (thanks to all of the comments on this post!) and I want to self-host some services myself. I currently have a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ and I'm not quite sure if it can handle these things:

  • A matrix homeserver
  • A lemmy instance
  • A website with static HTML pages
  • Privacy-respecting frontends (Piped, Redlib etc.)

I am thinking about getting a maxed-out Raspberry Pi 5 with a whole 8 Gigabytes of RAM. Is it worth it? I need a machine that is quiet, doesn't draw that much power and is overall pretty good for the money.

Edit: I bought this Mini PC instead of the Raspberry Pi 5. Thanks to all the comments!!

Njalla doesn't seem to be a good option according to this comment on a privacy-focused forum.

I'm currently on the lookout for privacy-respecting domain registrars. What are you guys using and why?

Edit: I've registered my domain with Porkbun. I got a really cool one, it's called reallyaweso.me!

[-] AlexPewMaster@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 months ago

That seems to sum up my question. Thank you!

I've seen a lot of self-hosted software wanting to store their data in /opt, is there any reason why?

[-] AlexPewMaster@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 months ago

I love how it says "Restaurants" but then displays an image with ice cream, makes a lot of sense 👍

[-] AlexPewMaster@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 months ago

Congratulations, you are now being put on a watchlist!

I never understood how to use Docker, what makes it so special? I would really like to use it on my Rapsberry Pi 3 Model B+ to ease the setup process of selfhosting different things.

I'm currently running these things without Docker:

  • Mumble server with a Discord bridge and a music bot
  • Maubot, a plugin-based Matrix bot
  • FTP server
  • Two Discord Music bots

All of these things are running as systemd services in the background. Should I change this? A lot of the things I'm hosting offer Docker images.

It would also be great if someone could give me a quick-start guide for Docker. Thanks in advance!
