I've made a self-hosting guide. I wanted it to be easy to use, but setup is always technical due to needing to use the terminal in the beginning, but I tried very hard and will edit if I get feedback! ᓚᘏᗢ guide → https://ophanimkei.com/you/selfhosting ᓚᘏᗢ askbox → https://ophanimkei.com/personal/askbox

This tutorial is focused on installing a panel on a virtual private server. These panels are often made for multiple users to use, so if you struggle with setup, one friend who's good with linux can host everything. Or you can set up one central server for a doujin circle.

If people like/use this tutorial, I plan to make more tutorials in future because I think the solution to so many problems we have on the internet are people making their own servers. You can move from server to server easily, and you can always revive your files, even if your VPS goes down.

Lastly, I love to help. It makes me really happy, but I am prone to exhaustion so my responses may be slow, and well, if you ask me something, I need you to provide as much detail to me with what you're struggling with as possible or else I can't help you.

I don't have Tumblr asks open because I don't think Tumblr is going to survive and I don't really check my notifications here, so I really would prefer if you used my website's askbox for questions!

Moving existing sites to a VPS is easy for those on other hosts who want to move someday!
