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).

Have I went overboard? Any suggestions? Or help? I travel a lot and don't have a lot of time when I am home to setup and configure.

I'm using Cloudron on Linode for some things because I have StarLink and haven't figured out how to connect via internet to my LAN yet. I can use VPN with the router but it seems wonky.

2 NAS

2 Raspberry Pi's with DNS servers

Raspberry Pi with HomeAssistant

Separate NVR for cameras

Several Docker containers on one of NAS

A Raspberry Pi with DietPi. a 1TB attached drive and Docker Containers.

Cloudron on Linode for when I'm away from home.

Looks cool dude. Have you tried using Traefik on docker? You can name your service like https:// homeassistant.thanatos instead of 192 .168.1.1:8080.

It's pretty cool and it can even handle SSL certs.

Would love an up-to-date tutorial on how to do this without a domain name. I don’t own one but would still much prefer to use https://jellyfin.myserver.home than http://192.168.1.200:8096.

Hiya! You can use homelab.express if you'd like.

I'll have to check this out. Any suggestions on where to start? Would this also solve the issue of some containers requiring ssl and domain?

I followed this guy's tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liV3c9m_OX8

You do need your own domain name but I got one on namecheap for like $15 per year. It's worth it.

You can go so much cheaper than that as well, I've had .xyz and .party domains for less than $2 per year with namecheap
