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.

My server uses zfs, which allows me to create regular snapshots with sanoid. This makes it extremly easy to quickly recover individual services or vms without consuming a lot of disk space. In case the server is not recoverable, I still send the incremental snapshots to a pi clone with a large hard drive. If you use the native disk encryption, the snapshot can be sent encrypted without the second server having access to the data.This solution with zfs and sanoid/syncoid has often made my life easier and, in my experience, uses less bandwidth and cpu load.
