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.

Are you using cloudfront?
yep
Are you using s3 for storage or block storage? S3 is pretty cheap but I'm wondering if Cloudfront would still help me with the load on the ec2 instance when federation traffic is slamming it.
yes!
so the way this works is, you only pay for the lift from your EC2 instance to the s3 bucket, then cloudfront serves the bucket directly to public, which is far cheaper than EC2-> public
i dont think ive even triggered the non-free tier of cloudfront yet.
