  • Leon Mika ☛ Running PeerTube In Coolify

    A few months ago, I moved my PeerTube instance over to Coolify, so that I could shutdown the Linux instance it was running on. I had a PeerTube instance for a little over a year, although I hardly posted anything on there and it’s never seen much traffic. I did want to keep it around though, as I had a few video embeds scattered around the internet. It just didn’t need to be on it’s own server.

    This post is not about how I ported this instance over to Coolify. It’s been a few months, and several hours of trial and error to get that working. But I had been asked how one could setup their own PeerTube instance in Coolify, and I wanted a documented approach for how one could do so, should there be a need to spin up a new instance from scratch. PeerTube is not one of the builtin services that Coolify offers, at least at the time of this post, so a manual process to setting this up is required.

      • Daniel Stenberg ☛ My cookie spec problem

        RFC 6265 brought order to a world of chaos. It was good. It made things a lot better. With this spec, it was suddenly much easier to write compliant and interoperable cookie implementations.

        I think these are plain facts. I have written cookie code since 1998 and I thus know this from my own personal experience. Since I believe in open protocols and doing things right, I participated in the making of that first cookie spec. As a non-browser implementer I think I bring a slightly different perspective and different angle to what many of the other involved people have.
