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.

Makes sense that basic file hosting shouldn't use much power.
Sharing stuff with friends and family is in my plan, eventually, not sure what approach to take yet, but I'd like to avoid an app for them, if I can (people are resistant to apps, I kind of get it).
I've looked at Nextcloud/Owncloud a few times, and it always seems like a lot more than I need, though I also want to move my calendar, contacts, etc, to my own hosting. Not sure what the right answer is, lol.
My setup already goes quite a bit beyond basic file hosting.
There is no self hosted service I could imagine to need that I'd expect not to be able to host due to CPU constraints. I think I'll run into RAM constraints first; it's already at 3GiB after boot.
