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.

Observium is an easy starting point for network gear, without going down the Zabbix rabbit hole.

Personally I just roll Victoriametrics and Grafana.

Well, switched from check_mk to librenms this morning. and indeed, it's a much better fit. Much more network oriented compared to many other tools.

Great for small and large scale networks, add devices by entering ip and snmp credentials and all done.

Add alerting if that's your cup of tea.
