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.

I don't get why people want these for self-hosting. They're meant for GPIO and automation control. They're massively underpowered.
Just use an actual SBC and leave these for electronics.
They're great for low strength, dedicated platforms instead of using something with more muscle like a NUC, also where a VM or container can't be used.
Out of curiosity, what are some use cases that would fit this criteria? VMs and containers are very capable and it's much easier to debug a failed VM than a failed piece of hardware.
My pending or existing projects.
A software defined radio server. Lives up top of an antenna mast running off PoE with an RTL tuner connected.
ADSB receiver, similar to above, but on a fixed frequency.
The above 2 could be virtualised in theory, but there is an advantage in having the cable to the antenna short and thus the sbcs live up antenna masts in an enclosure.
MMDVM hotspot for ham radio (this might not count as it HAS TO use the gpio pins on the pi, this can't be visualised even with a USB port passed through.
As an audio server that would bitstream 24bit/96kHz to an amp.
