In February 2025, we celebrated 10 years of PyCon Namibia! 🎉 Developers from around the world joined us to learn, share, and grow in the open-source community.

Since 2015, PyCon Namibia has connected local programmers with global opportunities, helping many advance their careers and contribute to Namibia’s growing tech scene.

Check out my latest article reflecting on this milestone and staty tune for the next one.

I'm curious to hear what others are #SelfHosting! Here's my current setup:

Hardware & OS

Infrastructure & Networking

Security & Monitoring

Authentication & Identity Management

  • Authelia (Docker): Just set this up for two-factor authentication and single sign-on. Seems to be working well so far!
  • LLDAP (Docker): Lightweight LDAP server for managing authentication. Also seems to be working pretty well!
    #AuthenticationTools #IdentityManagement

Productivity & Personal Tools

Notifications & Development Workflow

  • Notifications via: #Ntfy (Docker) and Zoho's ZeptoMail (#Zoho)
  • Development Environment: Mostly using VSCode connected to my server via Remote-SSH extension. #VSCodeRemote

Accessibility Focus ♿🖥️

Accessibility heavily influences my choices—I use a screen reader full-time (#ScreenReader), so I prioritize services usable without sight (#InclusiveDesign#DigitalAccessibility). Always open to discussing accessibility experiences or recommendations!

I've also experimented with:

  • Ollama (#Ollama): Not enough RAM on my Pi.
  • Habit trackers like Beaver Habit Tracker (#HabitTracking): Accessibility issues made it unusable for me.

I don't really have a media collection, so no Plex or Jellyfin here (#MediaServer)—but I'm always open to suggestions! I've gotten a bit addicted to exploring new self-hosted services! 😄

What's your setup like? Any cool services you'd recommend I try?

I’ve mostly stayed quiet about the WordPress drama, and I was starting to see Matt Mullenweg’s point that wp engine should contribute more to the project. However, the way he’s handled the situation, especially his recent response, raises serious concerns about the future of WordPress.

👋 Hallo zusammen!

Ich bin Marcel, Baujahr '95, und habe eine Leidenschaft für Fotografie sowie Server-Projekte. Besonders fasziniert mich die Digitalisierung und Optimierung von Prozessen. Auch wenn ich erst mit dem Coden begonnen habe, kriege ich die meisten Dinge zum Laufen.
😄

Nach meiner Registrierung am
1.4.2023 auf @linke@troet.cafe habe ich mich jetzt dazu ermutigt, auf Procial umzuziehen. Ich war schon lange ein Fan von Misskey (oder Firefish) und habe endlich eine deutsche Instanz gefunden, die zu mir passt.

Freue mich auf den Austausch mit euch!
🚀
