An agile pot?
Will it run from me while I try to put ingredients in it?

my pleasure if I can help :)

Many (most?) residential internet service providers do not allow self hosting websites on their network and they’d be dynamic IP anyway though you could work around that somewhat with dynamic DNS since you’re going to need to purchase a domain name and point it to somewhere anyway.

That’s what I already do.
cloudflare-ddns, own domain and done. Except for reliability at night where the ISP reboots my DSL connection at 4am.

What we usually do is using an SMTP relay.
Plus points on having a spam protection service included and in front of the mail server.

As an employee of an MSP it’s sometimes really annoying how some smaller one-man-army + employee MSPs do “crafty” setups on site and meaningless firewall rules to work against.

and email can be hosted sooo cheap these times. My ionos contract just to have my own domain costs me maybe 10€ per month.

• 2 servers for reundancy, preferably 3rd one laying around for a quick swap

Overkill for a small startup. We sell to medical practices and they get (at most) a small tower server from HPE (ML30). Backup servers can either be a small 2 bay NAS or a microserver depending on the needs

Pretty decent UPS setup, again multiple units for reundancy

If they can afford that. Most are already good by just using a decent online UPS.

Routers, network hardware, internet uplinks and everything at least duplicated and configured correctly to keep things running

Not a multi million company.
Routers: BS.
Network: Maybe 2x 16 port switches but too much overhead. 1x 48 Port if you really need that.
Internet uplinks: If you have a satellite office and need the S2S-VPN to be constantly up.
Btw: You didnt mention a duplicated phone line ;P

• A separate backup solution, on at least two different physical locations, so a few more servers and their network, power and other stuff taken care of

Again overkill.
Backup on the server with something to a 2-Bay NAS and a secondary job with rotating external USB disks to take or somewhere external with you.

Monitoring, alerting system in case of failures, someone being on-call for 24/7

Monitoring: Yep
Alerting: Done by monitoring in the best circumstance
On-call 24/7: As this is a small company: LOL

Not fear but you need to have the respect it deserves.

thus they aren’t required to have an easily accessible battery cover.

Eyeroll

Even my action cam has a swappable battery and is literally designed to be put underwater (probably even more than a phone).
Why. Can’t. Laws. For. One. Time. Actually. Be. Useful.

Had a similar issue migrating to my new setup after I started scanning the new archive.
Try increasing your swap disk.
Mine was set at 1GB but increased it later to 8GB. No more freezes of the host.

Dev discontinued the app due to google being difficult to maintain.

Probably very likely.

I don’t wanna ask if and how much individuals contributed to the ones that host their instances ;)

Sad to hear but my point still stands: Thank you very much for your work.
Any recommendation for an Android fork or any other way to make it work on mobile without an app (if that’s even possible)

THANK you for the hard work! Your app is part of my phone photo and appdata backup.

Side question: Will you continue with a fork for f-droid?

Also how I treat it

TorrentDB. First tracker I participated. Good layout, nice rules. Sad to see it go

Jellyfin and Youtube are seemingly the only web interfaces I can willingly endure.
For youtube though it’s only with Premium/ublock origin and some custom filters like blocking channel membership banners.

Edit: Jellyfin is obviously a really good service :)

They even made a tv show out of a teacher with cancer.
