I've recently started a new project, which I call the *Federation of Freedom*.
|
||
|
|
It is a website that teaches people how to self-host their own servers on the
|
||
|
|
internet, on all libre software. You could actually do it all on Libreboot
|
||
|
|
hardware.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When I say recently, I mean it; Fedfree launched on 25 December 2022. Today
|
||
|
|
is 8 January 2023. Thus, Fedfree is just about two weeks old, on this day.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**This is the website: [fedfree.org](https://fedfree.org/)**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I'm basically starting out with it, documenting each part of libreboot.org in
|
||
|
|
terms of hosting, but it will later expand. On that first part, it's still not
|
||
|
|
complete; it lacks a mail server guide (libreboot.org has mail), rsync
|
||
|
|
guide (ditto) and cgit guide (ditto) - I'm planning to host
|
||
|
|
a [forgejo instance](https://forgejo.org/) for git, and that'll be yet
|
||
|
|
another guide for Fedfree.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The guides it does currently have are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* [L2TP tunnel router, with redundant
|
||
|
|
routing](https://fedfree.org/docs/router/debian-l2tp-aaisp.html)
|
||
|
|
* [Nginx web server on Debian with LetsEncrypt HTTPS and
|
||
|
|
Certbot](https://fedfree.org/docs/http/debian-nginx.html)
|
||
|
|
* [BIND9 authoritative name
|
||
|
|
server](https://fedfree.org/docs/dns/debian-bind.html)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The setups described in those guides is exactly how libreboot.org is hosted,
|
||
|
|
for the types of services described.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Help is greatly appreciated, if people want to submit their own guides. The
|
||
|
|
basic premise behind it is this: hardware and software freedom are all well and
|
||
|
|
good, but most people with good ideas don't know how to do hosting, so they
|
||
|
|
default to using proprietary services like GitHub. I want to change that!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Basically, I want every website on the internet to be hosted in someone's
|
||
|
|
living room. I'm only half-joking when I say that. That is literally how
|
||
|
|
libreboot.org was hosted, for many years; the setup is still self-hosted, but
|
||
|
|
it's not currently hosted in a *living room*.
