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.

Any backup location is secure as long as you encrypt your data securely before you back it up there.
For something as important as a backup that you don't want to lose, I'd stick with something tried and true like Backblaze B2.
Backblaze is also very cheap for what it is (a great storage solution). You can pay monthly or use more of the regular pay as you go model.
Monthly and pay as you go have ups and downs, but the benefit of pay as you go for me is the ridiculously cheap deal (if you download your backups a lot it may be less so, but I don't so it works out very cheap for me).
Agreed - Diode caught my eye as an alternative to a site-to-site VPN as I have 2x NAS at different locations (+ Backblaze, which I'll be moving away from)
So, it's less about the destination, more about the network...
But it feels like the website's got more time invested in it, than the actual tech solution.
