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.

This is what scares me the most. Ideally, I want a whole SSD to store data. I really don't want to lose any important data. I plan on hosting public services (like the services I've mentioned above) under my domain, so having a reliable drive would be really helpful.
General rule: if you have "important data" don't go cheap. Get a real computer. Have backups. Test them.
Yeah. You can pretty much mitigate all of your concerns with an SSD. But I've never run anything public facing. So make sure you confirm that there's people running said services on Pis before you pull the trigger.
You can use an SSD as a boot drive on the Pi. I have my Home Assistant Pi running off an SSD.
