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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

my solution is not never have anything important on my computer, i have a dedicated gaming pc just for my flight simulator. And please just empty that damn mailbox, it is not a storage system for documents and it increase surface of attack if compromised. For the rest just air gap many backups of your most important data.

E.g. keeping your taxes report unencrypted at rest on disk is a dumb idea too or worst a copy of your ID documents.
