#pikapods — Public Fediverse posts

Looks like #Pikapods has a new #Todoist alternative, #Vikunja. Have been wanting a self-hosted task manager for ages, might check it out.

Although I have moved a lot of my stuff off of Pikapods to my own VPS or home server, I still like being able to try things easily via Pikapods without the struggle of initial setup.

#SelfHosting

I don't know if it's a #selfhosting #IT topic or a #psy #OCD #burnout topic.
I don't know if it's a call for help or if I just need to dump this here.

First, I'm very glad that I could totally leave the #GAFAMs! Yes, they make your digital life apparently easier, but the price to pay is IMHO far, far too high. I despise them!

My #selfhost setup is driving me nuts: #VPN, online services, I can't decide if I'm happy with my #Synology #NAS hosting (backed up on SYnology C2), if I need a #VPS (my attempts showed that maintenance is high) or an assisted hosting service (like #PikaPods which sounds great). Availability of online services would be higher.

My PikaPod is stuck loading. Feeling like I'm waiting centuries for the service to start up! It's the little IT moments that test your patience the most.

✅ Closed my #HelpScout account
✅ Removed HS from my privacy policy

And that means my migration to semi-self-hosted #FreeScout (EU, #PikaPods) is now done! 🎉 AMA

Pocket is dead and in the next few days they will be delete forever. So I wrote my Django app for this (my personal Pocket) but if you are note a coder or you don’t want to support this code you can use other software.

I suggest Shiori (https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori ) with PikaPods (https://www.pikapods.com/ ) as hosting.

This is not sponsored by anyone but a real dev who had a problem and fixs it

Is anyone here using #PikaPods? I just noticed they're offering both hosted #Discourse and #FreeScout, and I was wondering how well they work.

#TIL about #PikAPods;

"Instant Open Source App Hosting
Run the finest Open Source web apps from just $1.20/month."

I can't endorse this company's services without at least trying them, so keep your grain of salt handy. But I like the concept.

@maique I'm guessing I'll be able to import my last saved #WordPress blog into pika. Yes? 🤔

Will it let me export and keep my blog if I choose to later* move to a regular* webhost?

I didn't see the size limit per app. The pika website doesn't spell out what they mean by "minimum required resources", and what it'll cost extra later if I go beyond the limit. 😕

Hey @mastohost 👋 if I use my domain with #PikaPods, it won't affect my masto.evelynyap.com, will it?

@mpmilestogo @maique
Woh 😲 What is this #PikaPods thingy?

Help me understand...

Does it basically work like #webhosting except that it's per #app? Like only #WordPress and no other installations?

I still haven't fixed my #website. 😅 So I haven't done any posting there for a couple of years now. Maybe this pika thing suits me better. 🤔

But will I still be able to use my #domain with an #email service?

#NotATechie #EducateMePlease

@davidoclubb @mymymy It's #Pikapods - I have #Nextcloud #photoprism #pinry and #paperlessngx running!

Just a small shoutout to #borgbase and #Pikapods
