Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

In my experience it always goes wrong at the least opportune time. Before an important zoom call, as you're about to leave for the airport etc. My NAS and services (especially Home Assistant) are so mission critical now that I like to have a warm backup ready to go, even if it's a stop-gap measure.
Yeah I can't argue with that, it's more that I have no financial gain in this setup, so every redundancy set up costs me directly. At some point I have to say that it's good enough.
It's always a trade-off I guess, with cost being the deciding factor.
If I ever build a new house, I'm having a proper rack with room for a redundant server for sure!
