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

I personally have a K3S cluster I host at home and an auto-scaled cluster in Hetzner. I see different use cases and am happy to have both.
One thing to mention is that you can also run your own tunnel with something like pangolin on a VPS (CX23 is plenty). Thus, you could have a cheaper could bill if you wanted a hybrid setup.
Also, I highly recommend moving your node to a data center closer to home.
unfortunately, the American data centers that Hetzner has don’t have any capacity for the type of VPS that I’m interested in. what they do offer for those particular data centers is just entirely too expensive for my budget. That’s why I went with one of the European data centers, as even with the upcoming pricing increase, I’ll be able to actually afford my VPS. Plus, having it outside of American jurisdiction makes me much happier.
