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.

It's crazy not to have openmediavault or to ever discuss it on their shows. But I guess when the inferior competition like UnRAID is paying them to boost sales it's better to ignore one of the best server distros for selfhosters. It is literally built for small business and home servers and it's debian underneath which is great for power users that find shit like UnRAID limiting and shady.

They have different projects there each year, but it's based on what people talk about and use. AFAIK, there has been almost none links for updates to OMV here on Lemmy for example nor do I personally hear about it very often.

Also, they'd didn't even include Unraid as an option in this survey so it's a bit weird to call them out for that?

Yes they do have some advertising, but it's completely tracking free and not those stupid dynamic adds other podcasts go for. It's not an easy job keeping multiple podcasts series alive with barely any advertising. So in this case I'm happy unraid sponsor them, it's highly relevant to the show/listeners and it's an amazing NAS OS.

I'm sure OMV is a great OS, but compared to other options such as TrueNAS or proxmox it's nearly never mentioned.
