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.

I tried earlier today and I had no luck actually getting an instance running

It would help if the explanation was specific to a raspberry pi

You could set up a dns based ad-blocker like pihole and a vpn like wireguard to tunnel your phone back into your home network so you have ad-blocking on the go, too. That's a semi beginner protect with plenty of tutorials to pick from.

You could run nextcloud, syncthing, or immich to make your own cloud at home but that might need more than a basic pi setup.

It's a great software to run. I like to watch youtube tutorials that explain things step by step so i can understand what happens. If i find a good video i'll see what other software that channel may have a tutorial on and if that software may interest me.
