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.

If I had a nickel for every time clearing the ARP tables fixed a problem, I'd have a shitload of nickels.

If clearing the ARP tables fixes the issue you have bigger problems

These things happen when a skinflint company contracts out network setup for a decade, gets acquired by another skinflint company who axes the contractors and doesn't hire on-site network personnel, gradually builds out infra on top of the unsupported foundation, and then hires c suite buddies who want to bring in their own people to further muddy the waters.

Like every MSP ever. When your CEO that started the company in college suddenly shows up in a green Lamborghini it is time to spruce up the resume.
