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.

Hey everyone, I'm looking to get into self-hosting as a bit of a hobby, host some websites and learn a bit more about sys-admin stuff.

I just wondered if anyone had any recommendations on or experiences with green/sustainable hosting services?

It's a bit far-fetched but I remember a website I found a while back that was fully hosted using solar energy (yes it went down at times).

Thanks for any help!

Was it this one?

Yeah a few people have linked through to it, such a neat idea! Thinking I might give it a go with a Raspberry 🥧
