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.

Do you really access your data most often from home than remotely ?
That's not really the point I'm trying to make, I'm not sure where this disconnect is coming from.
The question you should be asking is whether or not I can more easily access my home than a data center, to which the answer would be yes.
If the entire world disappeared aside from the plot of land I live on, well, I'd have larger issues, but I would still be able to access my data, until the generator ran out of gas of course.
To answer the question you did ask that, again, is not relevant to the point I'm trying to make, is yes. I work from home, and live in America where we don't have third places. Additionally, most of the services I self host are home automation and data backup based. Sure, I wouldn't be able to access Immich or Home Assistant while away from home, which would be annoying, but the end of the world? Not really. A lot of people intentionally don't make their HA/Immich instances visible to the internet.
