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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Ooof. 47 months. I should rethink my setup.
This is merely ROI, it doesn't capture things like watching what you want.
I started from needing a server for mobile devices to sync to, music, general file storage, and some virtual machines for testing stuff.
That put me at about 1TB. I already had a bunch of DVDs that I wanted to watch more conveniently, so I just upped the storage and started converting my own stuff.
So my setup isn't just for media/replacing subscriptions - that a knock on effect.
Still this is a nice calculator for me to better visualize what things actually cost.
