👨‍💻 Over the years, I’ve learned a lot from trial, error, and a few coffee-fueled rabbit holes while setting up all my self-hosted services. ☕⚙️

Now I’m wondering… would anyone be interested if I started sharing tutorials?

Could be:
📝 Blog posts
🎥 Video walk-throughs
📦 Docker setups
🛠️ Reverse proxy tricks, identity management, and more

Everything from “click here” beginner guides to advanced stuff like SSO with Authentik or federated Matrix!

Let me know what you’d like to see — and if there’s enough interest, I’ll start posting! 🙌

Welcome to this brief yet informative video that delves into the concept of the Fediverse and its functionality.

Produced by Farmasoft, a French organisation dedicated to Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), this video explores the interconnected world of decentralised platforms. Farmasoft is actively developing several open-source projects, including PeerTube, which exemplifies the principles of the Fediverse.

Join us as we unravel the intricacies of this innovative digital landscape and discover how it empowers users to connect and share in a more open and collaborative manner.

You can learn a lot by teaching others. This is a well-studied phenomenon. It's called the protégé effect.

Here's a little description of how it works, and a description of an experiment I'm busy running with some students I work with.

The experiement is still in progress, but looking pretty good.
