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.

I've been looking at something for my cameras. I got Zoneminder running but configuring its behaviour was a nightmare.

All I want is to keep a limited rotating backup of a few cameras. Would Shinobi do that?

Shinobi or frigate are fine for that.

Frigate markets itself as "AI detection" but it isn't required.

Also frigate is open source and.ahinobi is closed source.

Shinobi would absolutely do that if that's all you want it to do. It's definitely not a one-click setup either, though, unfortunately.
