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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Then don't go to the cloud! (or use encrypted storage if you really have to)

My view: Unless I can access the hardware 24/7/365 the data isn't mine for 'they' can deny me access to my data anytime while they keep full access. (hence store it decryped)

A hard drive in a PO Box; data encrypted. Retrieve it occasionally to sync it with your local storage.

This is good, if they:

    1. Understand & trust what you're doing and don't fiddle with it
    1. Don't understand and just don't fiddle with it

Luckily I have a family member that fits one of those categories.
