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.

Hello everyone!

My friend and I have each bought an optiplex server. Our goal is to selfhost a web app (static html) with redundancy. If my server goes down, his takes over and vice versa. I've looked into Docker Swarm, but each server has to be totally independent (each runs its own apps, with a few shared ones).

I can't find a solution that allows each server to take over and manage loadbalancing between the two. Ideally with traefik, because that's what we're currently using. To me the real issue is the DNS A record that point to only one IP :(
