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 assume it's not nvidia. Yet I have no idea how to differentiate between them and neither do I know what a good price is.

Let's say I don't want to think about what the video type is. I just want a smooth experience.

Edit: thank you guys!

I have one, it is fantastic.

Someone said that it is "not terribly performent" but it doesn't matter for transcoding. It can do multiple 4k streams of AV1 & HEVC. That is perfect.

According to benchmarks, it beat the 3080 and 6800XT when it was released for transcoding performance. That is what you have to look at in this case, you aren't gaming on it.

Just remember to enable all of the correct kernel modules to get it working. You often have to manually download the firmware git repo and move it to the firmware folder in Debian to get it working.
