alt Hacker NewsHow did you spin up the self-hosted instance?
Seems the self-hosting documentation is a bit... lacking. Both "self-hosting" buttons on the main page send me to "#".
It seems interesting, even though I'm more of the roll your own school of thought here because there could be some very sensitive data in this system.

Here you go: https://docs.monicahq.com/developers/setup-local-development
That's linked from their GitHub: https://github.com/monicahq/monica
PikaPods also offers Monica hosting in your own container.
Not the OP, but I use a little Debian machine to self-host. It’s fairly stable when running, but updates are dicey. It has too many dependencies and every major update has had some breakage that takes a while to fix.
My own instance is still on 4.0.0 despite 4.1.2 being out because I don’t see a benefit in updating and I don’t want to risk spending three or four hours hunting through yarn dependencies to undo an update that breaks things.
