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.

Sharing some lessons I learned from 10 years/millions of users in production. I’ll be in the comments if anyone has any questions!

I hope this series will be useful to the self-hosted and small web crowds—tips for tools to pick and the basics of server management.

I can offer some constructive tips to you as well: dont speak for all of us.

I liked the article. I didn't interpret it as "everyone must do what I say". It was simply a viewpoint from a person on the internet. That is what a blog is.

The complexity of tech stacks have increased enormously in the last 10 years, and it's only sane to see what tradeoffs we are making to be able to scale easily. Perhaps it's not worth the trouble for 90% of us. If we follow best practice from cloud providers without thinking for ourselves, we will not learn to think for ourselves either.

So let's do that. Let's think, wrote blogs, discuss, and allow for discussions. Don't shut people down.
