🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 94 ✨
Self-hosted Ghost site unveiling - take 2 🎬
I'm finally ready to show you my self-hosted #Ghost site: installed on my own, with command lines, with a lot of patience and after many attempts (including 4 VPS wipes).
It took me a while to migrate all the posts, media and members, but here we go, finally:
✨ https://news.elenarossini.com ✨
Thanks to your wonderful advice and help (especially by nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqwnw8gw6r9dxdwwtfla5q297lgfs5cm97khh2ydd2ffu0mcx8wprszqlqnp (nprofile…lqnp)) I got the courage to edit my nginx config and I'm waiting to see if the redirects from the old posts work. It's always DNS... and nginx 😂
And this is take 2 because I swear this self-hosted Ghost site is slightly cursed and the first time around as soon as I edited the URL of an old Mastodon toot, the site went offline. This happened twice today. Won't touch any URLs and will metaphorically sage the VPS to clear its energy 'cause it's a little cursed 🌿
