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.

My usecase is just to have a local single instance for testing apps against. I prefer to spin stuff up in Docker on the homelab.

Garage is trivial to get up and running and it’s more lightweight than minio nowadays.

That's what annoyed me about minio. Started super crazy simple to set up, but I missed two updates and came back to AWS levels of mandatory configuration. Ffs I chose you because you were simple, not because I needed to replace s3

I went through this too, except I got pissed off and found a fips compliant image running the last version prior to their disk format changes. Gosh that royally pissed me off.

Garage definitely seems better suited for selfhosters and small setups, Minio is just so large and complex with specific requirements now.
