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.

This is one of the reasons I never use docker volumes. I bind mount a local folder from the host or mount and NFS share from somewhere else. Has been much more reliable because the exact location of the storage is defined clearly in the compose file.
Borg backup is set to backup the parent folder of all the docker storage folders so when I add a new one the backup solution just picks it up automatically at the next hourly run.
I have a similar distrust of volumes. I've been warming up to them lately but I still like the simple transparency of bind mounts. It's also very easy to backup a bind mount since it's just sitting there on the FS.
