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.

This is Seafile for me. Definitely not the "set it and forget it" Google Drive alternative I was hoping for. Thank goodness I have Syncthing backing up important files, but sharing with friends and family is a nuisance.

What we need is something that is a) Private (not saying nc isn't) b) Independent of any judicial government c) P2P and ultra redundant d) Run by a true non-profit (not like openAI) e) Massively distributed, process wise and storage wise f) OS independent, written in pure C or Rust.

I run a k3s Kubernetes cluster on a single KVM host(multiple VMs). Honestly I do not care a single f*ck about that machine nor k3s itself. I update once a year, do not have any documentation written nor IaC somewhere. I always forget how I configured the networking stuff for example. But that machine runs my critical services flawlessly without a single crash in like 3 years. So no I cannot relate.

My wonderful MongoDB powered, old as fuck mFi vm. It's running on Ubuntu 14 because that's the last supported version and Ubiquiti abandoned this shit decades ago. It's set to restore and reboot once a month. That usually keeps shit working lol

The simple fix is to not use nextcloud

What’s the alternative?

Wait so it's not just that my vps only has 1gb of ram?

You guys with more ram still get crashes?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (10 children)

Take that as you want but a vast majority of the complaints I hear about nextcloud are from people running it through docker.

I don't, because I switch it with something better if something like that happens.
