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.

Not sure if I'm late on the draw here, but:

Debian 12 "Bookworm" Ancient 2007 Quad Core Intel Q6600 ASUS P5N-T Deluxe Motherboard 8 GB RAM 64GB SSD for the OS and a few applications 6x2TB Laptop HDDs in RAID 5 - scavenged from electronics scrap All wrapped up in a spare full tower I had from an old build

For now, the few services I have running are local network only. They are simply a few Docker containers running PiHole and Portainer. The RAID array is set up as a network share via SMB for my various personal devices to dump files to.

I am very new to the whole self-hosted thing and enjoying learning. Really, new to Linux, servers, networking, etc. Would love to hear some recommendations on what services I should look into, resources for learning more, critiques, etc. So far, browsing topics on here has been pretty helpful.
