Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

No trolling.

I also use kubernetes to run my Lemmy instance. Sadly,
pictrsuses their own "database" file which can only be opened by a single pod because it refuse to run if the "database" lock is already acquired by another pod, making scaling up the number of pods impossible. I wish they use postgres instead of inventing their own database. I suspect this is one of the reasons why those large Lemmy instances have difficulty scaling up their server.You mean pictrs can't scale, or the other pods cannot as well? I separated lemmy-ui, the backend, and pictrs into different pods. Haven't tried scaling anything yet though, but I did notice the database issue with pictrs when RollingRestart, had to switch to Recreate.
Only pictrs that can't scale. Lemmy ui and backend seems to be stateless.
Great to hear, that will make it super easy if I start allowing users on my instance.
This is a really interesting observation. Curious if the devs are aware that this breaks simple scalability efforts
