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.

Hey - lots of good points, thanks. I think I'll give this a try on a less used domain of mine, just to get a practical feel for it. I do appreciate the arguments against, but to an extent, if both my VPS's are down, so is basically everything served by the domain. I will have to make sure monitoring is taken care of, and I do have a completely remote email address from all of this.
knot seems to have a current docker image maintained by the project, so I'll give that one a try and see how it goes. Stay tuned for me coming back crying and repenting in a few day's time, I guess :)
If worst comes to worst, I can always go back to where I came from, it will have been a learning experience.
