Selfhosted

56953 readers

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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Yeah I wouldnt trust immich with directly storing it myself

Get that stuff off on its own and have immich access that as shown in Louis Rossmann's setup video

Think of it like having a dedicated steam drive with the os on its own, so if you have to format or decide to distrohop, you don't have to download and reinstall a dozen +250GB games
