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.

It has an 'App store' that's been growing a lot lately. Writing new docker-compose.yaml files is easy (see: https://www.runtipi.io/docs/contributing/adding-a-new-app ), and exposing them behind NAT, e.g. from home it's easy too (see: https://www.runtipi.io/docs/guides/expose-apps-with-cloudflare-tunnels )... But my favorite perk is the folder structure (see: https://www.runtipi.io/docs/reference/folder-structure ), and the fact that 'media' is shared between apps.

So I'm the kind of person who runs back ups using two synologies and is more of a GUI guy. I use mac and pcs very fluently but I'm not entirely terminal or command line literal.

Will something like this cause more problems if I'm looking to get rid of Google drive and start switching to next cloud or will this make my life easier?

This requires some command line to fully tame the beast(s).. sorry, the apps! that you'd be hosting. If you prefer an easy solution, for Nextcloud, specifically, I think you can try the managed instances (e.g. Hetzer offers 'nx' boxes). It's better than paying premium fees to GAFAM imho every step counts ;)
