Using an Android tablet as a web server? — I have a Lenovo K-10 tablet lying around and I wondered whether it is possible to use it to serve a website / onionsite. If this is possible, what is the best way to achieve so?

UNIX way/KISS monitoring and alerting What do you use to monitor multiple machines/servers/services/etc? I am interested in the most simple, flexible, and robust approach to monitoring/alerting. What kind of software, approaches, etc. Systems like Nagios/Icinga and Zabbix seem to me very overloaded and are one big point of failure. I know about Monit, Munin, RRDTools. But are there any even simplest options? It is possible even without external dependencies, i.e. databases, or even without...

Situation with Redis etc — Hi, what is your opinion about recent change of Redis licensing? This looks like some streak: Qt limited availability of LTS releases Red Hat is testing how much it can circumvent GPL without breaking it literally MongoDB went SSPL Elasticsearch went SSPL And so on… At this point I’m starting to think that if there is some CLA to sign or the project is not under LGPL/GPL/AGPL license, the project is just meant to fund more yachts for some venture capitalists by...

slcl 0.2.1 release — I have just released slcl v0.2.1, a bugfix release for a minimalist web file server written in C for Unix-like systems. It is strongly recommended that existing instances update to the newer version when possible. If you have never heard about this project before, it aims to provide similar features to Nextcloud's "Files" webapp, but using ~100x less resources. It has almost no dependencies and relies on libweb, a HTTP web...

It has almost no dependencies and relies on libweb, a HTTP web server library written from scratch in C. Static Linux binaries for x86 and x86_64 are already available, and aarch64 and armv7...

Bulletin boards on the web — I’ve been tasked with setting up and administering a private bulletin board service for the alumni of a wilderness school I am part of. I could see this being used by anywhere from 50 to 500 people. I would just use an instance of Bubble if it were not for the fact that Gemini is not particularly accessible to the average user. What simple self hosted options for the web would you recommend? Minimalism is key. I don’t want setting it up to be a nightmare, and I don’...

phone-hosted gemini/gopher server? I found this interesting software for android and saw that the ports that could be used aren't in the gopher range. Has anyone tried to set up a server on their phone for gopher or gemini?

Pi over WiFi as a server? — Hi! I'm not super tech savvy, yet I'd like to try self-hosting my own Gemini capsule on my own Respberry Pi Zero 2 W in the near future... But both of my internet connections are wireless. My home doesn't have a land line, so I only have my mobile phone service with limited data, and the WiFi connection that my neighbour kindly shares with me... We also share meals and he stores his work stuff in my garage. So no, I'm not stealing his internet, hehe... My question...

Setting up myTinyTodo on my VPS — Introduction I enjoy making TODO-lists quite a lot. They've been a helpful way for me to collect my thoughts and manage my time. Lately I've been working on a gemini client app that's been getting steadily more complex (as these things often do). The project has gotten to the point that each time I step away from it I find myself struggling to pick up where I last left off. Yesterday I came to the conclusion that if I want to continue working on this...
