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.

Jesus, you can run more than one piece of software on each bit of hardware....

Why spread out across 12-13 machines? Seems like a huge waste of power, and a whole bunch of extra to maintain.

You're probably right. I mean. I need most of the network devices, and I didn't list everything I am running on each, just big things. I do need to consolidate some if them though. Its been a trip and has made me a better IT though.

Also move most services to containers. That's a huge resource saver while maintaining ease of management and separation from the host.
