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.

I thought of a weekly thread to post about what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you read.

So I decided to just try it. Maybe we find a format that works! It doesn't have to be me, feel free to create this post on Sunday if it's not up already.

I kinda-sorta finalized my migration to a smaller setup with my mail+web server. I've been running a small MSP business for several years and as customers flee right and left mostly to microsoft (due to 365 setup pricing) it's been in a decline for quite a while. So, I finally pulled the plug and shut down the business side of things and downscaled that to a single VPS with a handful of domains, email service and a few simple wodrpress sites.

Also I kinda-sorta moved all of my photo archive of 20+ years to immich and set up a backup scheme for it, which is now (only) 2-1-1. I also need more storage for that thing, but it needs to wait for few days until paycheck and after that migration I can finish importing all the photos I have laying around. That also requires some reconfiguration of my disk arrays, copying couple of terabytes from system to another and back again, but that's relatively easy thing to do, but it takes "a while" to accomplish.

After that there's a long list of things to do, but mostly I'll spend my free time and money to improve the current setup as quickly as possible in the immediate future.
