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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Finally got the time to set up OpenCloud. It is a pain in the ass to wade through their convoluted clusterfuck of compose files, but it is worth it! Sometime next week I'll refactor my current deployment. If I deem it fine, I might post it here for others to reference.

Opencloud was a weird experience for me. Getting it started was great and having all of the options and features available led me to build it bigger than I initially planned. The downfall was it became too slow with everything I wanted to do with it. Could have been my hardware but it became unusable.

Oh yikes! I'll see how it goes.
