Current services #

Mail server #

I have a self hosted email server. My emails are listed in the about me page if you'd like to send me mail.

Game servers #

I host a Garry's mod Server for playing TTT with friends.

Website #

As this site is based on werc and allows easy subdomains.

Archived Services #

Git #

I used to use both gittea and cgit as git hosts/frontends. I no longer do this, and just keep backups of all my github projects on a HDD.

Owncast #

A self-hosted livestreaming service. Useful in some instances, but I found it's not too useful.

Game Servers #

XMPP #

Historically hosted an XMPP instance. I no longer host it, as I have no strong reason to use it. I used to think XMPP was great, but my opinion has soured. The state of XMPP is a mess as different vendors provide different clients and servers that meet different sets of XEP points. This means, even though interoperability should exist, it doesn't. IRC, Email, or something centralised like whatsapp, google chat, SMS or Facebook messenger are better options due to network effects or interoperability that is actually interoperable, instead of inoperable.
