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.

Multiply your server wattage by 8 hours. That's how much battery you need. It's probably not going to be a cheap investment.
The alternative would be to keep your ups and invest in a generator you can kick on if there is a power cut, but if it's every day, that might get rough. Technology connections figured out a build it yourself solution a few years ago https://youtu.be/1q4dUt1yK0g?si=8WOTue9-zGghWlxY
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
I'd multiply by 10-12 hours to account for losses in the DC-AC conversion.
are there no dc-dc PSUs (or technically just voltage regulators I guess) to relace a PSU with available? That way OP could avoid part of the Ac->Dc->Ac->Dc-conversion related losses he would have with a battery-backup.
The cost of this would be much higher than just buying a bigger UPS I imagine, but it's definitely doable from the technical standpoint
This was very informative. Thank you!
