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 get the gist of what Opnsense is from the name, but what are some of the practical benefits for a small home labber to use it over PFsense?
The UI is way, way better. I also haven’t had opnsense corrupt itself, but PFsense did that to me twice in the five or so years I used it.
Other than that there aren’t a lot of functional differences. There was some drama years ago with the guy who runs PFsense and I guess he’s kind of a giant asshole, that’s what led to the fork, but I don’t remember the details.
