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.

Can relate to the approach. Keeping host barebones and everything dockerized + data volumes hosted separately will ease maintanance. For rapid redeployment a custom script will set up firewall/fail2ban/SSH/smartCTL/crontab/docker/docker-compose and finally load from another instance backups of all docker images. Complete setup from scratch takes 10-15 minutes. Tried Ansible but ended up custom scripting.
All my data is stored offsite twice a year. Data from high value is stored on a SSD as data volume and 2 other SSD’s as encrypted TAR + AWS S3. Rotation daily/weekly.
