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:

  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 mean anything that is not hosted in your house. For example, dynamic dns, some type of ddos protection, off-site backups, external oauth provider, etc.

For my homelab:

  • Backblaze B2 (Backup storage)
  • Cloudflare (DNS)
  • Tailscale (VPN)
  • Oracle Cloud (VPS)

For things that I host externally (i.e. not part of my homelab):

  • Oracle Cloud (VPS)
  • Tailscale (VPN)
  • Cloudflare (DNS)
  • Cloudflare R2 (Object storage)
  • Backblaze B2 (Backup storage)

What are you paying for BackBlaze and Cloudflare?

[–] baduhai@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't store much on backblaze, so I don't think I've ever spent over 2USD there in a month. As for Cloudflare, I'm able to stay in the free tier.

How much (GB/TB) is not much btw?

I need to get around to backing up via Backblaze

[–] baduhai@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

Around 350~400 GB. I compress and encrypt before sending to backblaze.
