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.

Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi..

What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?

I want to look into quadlets

They're actually quite annoying, the documentation is there but makes a lot of assumptions about what you already know.

I prefer podman systemd generate...just makes more sense to me.

A pain in the ass. Great but did not fit my needs. Dependent containers would fail a lot during upgrades. Kept trying to figure it out and then just said WTF am I doing this all works fine in docker.

Oh, that doesn't sound great. One reason I was looking into it was because Docker seemingly doesn't allow optional mounts which has been causing some issues. My home assistant is using a network attached USB device through a raspberry pi somewhere else in the house. Sometimes it would disconnect and take down my entire home assistant instance.
