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.

Part of me looks at this man as a system God among us puny and unworthy users.

The other part is saying just keep paying for one drive and Netflix. As the saying goes "the first step to powerbill and uptime hell is the simple plex server"

Just wait until they remove your favorite show and jack up the price

Oh I'm already testing plex out on the desktop with a few of the *arr services. It's very neat and satisfying but with power hitting $0.50aud/kW i need to be realistic about what hardware I want to run as investing too heavily early on will take years to pay off.

Still I'm very jealous of what you've got going on.
