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.

I've been using Kopia to backup my Windows work machine, Linux personal computer, and my wife's Macbook.

Right now, It is just backing up to my NAS, but I would like to have it backup to a cloud solution.

I figured I would get some S3 storage somewhere and point Kopia at that to make the backup. I do not need a lot of space. I think 500gb would be enough. I do not want costs to be too high.

Do I have the right plan, or is there a better option?

Thanks in advance.

For option 1, the NAS could even be an old router flashed with OpenWRT or a cheap $80 mini PC that has a portable or internal 2.5” disk attached.
