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.

I know for many of us every day is selfhosting day, but I liked the alliteration. Or do you have fixed dates for maintenance and tinkering?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

This post is proudly sent from my very own Lemmy instance that runs at my homeserver since about ten days. So far, it's been a very nice endeavor.

My current project is email. Setting up Mailcow and moving my domains over to VMs on a OVH KS-3 server right here in Canada. I'm sick of depending on cloud email providers and want more control of my data. Also getting Addy.io setup to move my aliases over from SimpleLogin. End game is to dump Proton and go all selfhosted for email and Mullvad for VPN. For Mullvad I found that you can buy a 6 or 12 month gift card vouncher on Amazon and it works out to being less than paying Mullvad directly per month.
