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 had it for some time — like more than a couple of months — and then I just added my credit card and never worry about it. The hardest part actually was getting a server provisioned, since you can’t change your region after account creation, and there’s no way to know if there’s ARM resources available for you to provision upon in your selected region.
I used a script and got mine in 2 days
Me too, it took about a week before it became provisioned. Definitely not one of those “I’ve got some time this weekend to go from sign up to up and running” kind of thing.
