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.

Not FOSS, and with an entry price tag, but I ditched my OPNSense firewall for a Ubiquiti UDM Pro SE router about 2 years ago and invested in 3 of their cameras plus a doorbell and love it. I previously had Blue Iris for CCTV.
The Unifi Protect app is great. Easy to navigate, great detection, and easy to store clips. There's no subscription fees, and I get a great firewall/router alongside a CCTV package.
Oh, and you can now add 3rd party cameras to the Unifi Protect system.
+1 for Unifi Protect. Their hardware may be a bit pricey, but it doesn't require any cloud/Internet connection and the app/interface is excellent.
I haven't tried the 3rd party cam support, but I don't think the price for the cameras is too outlandish for what they are and how well they're built.
Iirc the Unifi Protect software can be self-hosted now too.
