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.

That is largely a myth and in my experience never happens with higher quality laptop batteries. But yes limiting charge doesn't hurt if it is only used as a UPS anyways.
What part is the myth?
Which batteries are "high quality"?
Cause it happens... Pretty regularly if you're not limiting charging. The older the battery the more likely.
This isn't something you should fuck around with either: if it pops it'll burn too hot to extinguish and could take out your house.
Not a myth. Better batteries might have better safety measures, but none is inmune. It might not have happened to you but I've seen it happen in several high end/expensive brands already.
It will be a really bad UPS at best
Happened to my ladyfriend with a macbook pro. Cracked the shell of the laptop. No fire, but it sure did swell.
