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.

I just use a few shell scripts. Basically some simple bash scripts that do all the work after a fresh install.
Kubernetes/Ansible are great to learn, but are also more complicated for simple setups.
haven't thought about it. I guess I'll learn some bash :)
BTW what is a good OS for the VM host? many here are running proxmox... would you recommend it for this purpose of bash automation to bring up VMs?
I use Debian and Ganeti. I've not toyed with much else, so I dont know how they compare.
thanks for the info... I'm thinking of sticking with just Debian (as my simple usecase) and use virsh commands..
Proxmox is built on Debian and is great. My second choice would just be plain Debian.
Okay 👍 Thanks for your suggestions. Think I'll just stick with Debian 🙂
