Host Migration 2024
Well, it finally happened. I’ve been talking about it for a while now, but I finally upgraded my storage host (Hemlock) to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS from CentOS 7. CentOS 7 is deprecated, and after seeing the licensing change and absorption into the RedHat Borg, I decided to abandoned the RedHat fork entirely and move to Ubuntu. I’ve been using Ubuntu (and Debian, really) since around 2000, and have been dailing driving Ubuntu since about 2004. All of the VMs driving the services I run use Ubuntu (headless) and I’m certainly comfortable in that environment. I haven’t yet tried out a rolling release Linux distribution, but I think that I’m going to be trying it out on my personal laptop at some point this year. So far, the host mgiration went successfully and all of the services are back up and running. I’ve also installed Minio, and I’ll be slowly transitioning the storage related services over to Virtual Host storage rather than the current NFS solution.

Social Media 2023
So it’s been an interesting (almost) couple of years. I’ve been running a Mastodon instance for some time now and it’s quite the media mover. My Pixelfed instance went down due to some issue I’m completely forgetting about right now, I may stand one up again in the future. My Matrix instance went down due to database size issues - and eventually running out of diskspace. But Diaspora, Mastodon and PeerTube have been running strong.

Welcome! If you’ve found yourself here you’re either creeping on me, trying to learn something valuable (?) or share an idea. Or maybe all of the above.
