I can spin up new VMs on the server in my living room and install software on it. But it's more complex than just installing the software on a baremetal server. Fortunately for me, cloud technologies such as opentofu, cloud-init, and ansible can let me spin up and configure local VMs in seconds.| ergaster.org

After years of self-hosting on a VPS in a datacenter, I’ve decided to move my services at home. But instead of just porting services, I’m using this as an opportunity to migrate to a more flexible and robust set up.| ergaster.org
When working on my homelab, I regularly need to pass credentials to my tools. A naive approach is to just store the token in clear text, but there's a better alternative. Let's see how direnv and the Bitwarden password manager's CLI can be hooked together to let me keep my infrastructure credentials safe, in a simple, sturdy setup!| ergaster.org

If you are a user on a small Mastodon instance like me, you may have noticed that there is not much interesting going on there. This is because the way Mastodon works is, only those post are delivered to your instance that are posted or reposted by the users that the users on your instance follow across the network. Since your instance will have only a few users, it will only receive a few posts. This makes for an uninteresting experience. However, there is a solution: Relays. Relays are spec...| Abhinav's Notes
Mastodon is the most used software for running an Fediverse server. However, it is notorious for its high resource usage. In particular, it caches a lot of media from remote servers, which can be a problem for machines with limited storage. Mastodon docs recommend setting up a scheduled task to remove old media. Till version 4.0, this can be used to remove remote media and preview cards. But it does not have support for removing old user avatars and headers. A pull request just landed in Mast...| Abhinav's Notes
