The by far easiest to try would be to order one of these: https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/

Yeah, this makes moderation on anything but your home instance an excercise in futility 😓

I think Google open-sourced their Cardboard stuff, but no idea if someone picked it up and continued to update it for newer Android releases.

The feddit.org server is in Austria. But that doesn’t make any difference when (some of) the admins live in Germany. They could still get their homes raided by police.

Sounds like a reverse-proxy issue.

Also, why are you trying to run such a vastly outdated version of Lemmy?

https://github.com/tchapi/davis is a good option.

Sure, but why add streaming support in desktop Linux if the Deckard is a stand-alone unit? Linux on desktop is small enough, especially those overlapping with VR use that it really doesn’t seem like this would be worthwhile, and so far Valve seems to have been of the same opinion as the VR streaming via SteamLink only worked on Windows PCs.

Possibly, but hard to say. If my guess is right and the Deckard is a split unit with a home console like base station and a lightweight headset mainly for streaming then probably yes.

That KVM can be on a separate connection.

If you use a regular PC as the router you can attach a KVM to remote control and reboot it.

Quicksy and Prav apps allow you to easily signup via SMS verification like WhatApp etc. Super easy and the app works like Whatsapp, completely usable for non technical users (much more so than any Matrix client).

And Snikket is an super easy all in one solution for running a XMPP based small group server with invite based onboarding. Also completely non-technical user compatible.

I don’t think you will easily find an option that lets you build free form html pages (even Hubzilla limits that quite a bit), but since everyone seems to just put out random recommendations, have another one: https://elgg.org/

Elgg is an oldy but goody, and they recently added ActivityPub federation via an plugin (which I have not personally tried yet).

Peertube on Lemmy was AFAIK recently fixed.

There is a nice software for this and the developers run some city specific versions in Germany: https://lauti.org/

Some domain registers offer free webspace with the domain. OVH for example gives 100mb (incl. php) which is more than sufficient for a simple website.

Slightly better you mean. 30% is on matrix.org and an estimated 70% runs on servers provided by EMS (this figure includes matrix.org).

And Matrix is also VC funded. They have some other income yes, but it is insufficient to fund many of their current activities. As a result enshittification is already happening.

Matrix is basically the Bluesky of chat. If you want an Fediverse equivalent have a look at XMPP/Jabber.

Snikket isn’t really meant to be customized with other components right now, but it is possible to get Biboumi working with it.

Most people use Biboumi as a bouncer for external IRC networks, but of course it also works with a self-hosted IRC server.

Where is this mesh network located? Sounds amazing.

Why not Biboumi as an IRC bouncer?

I finally need to get around automating the deployment of a Hugo based website via Forgejo webhooks this week.
