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.

I was thinking about that as well, but I energy costs are a concern for me. May I ask how many watts your setup needs?
My server is usually between 30w-40w (that's about 20-25p per day electricity cost in the UK at 25p/kwH).
That's with the aforementioned processor/ram, a Gigabyte A520M motherboard, 1 case fan, the stock cooler, a 120gb 2.5" SSD, 2 4TB 3.5" HDDs and 1 8TB 3.5" HDD (all drives always spinning).
It's running OpenMediaVault as OS and 5 docker containers 24/7 (Flatnotes, FreshRSS, Kavita, qBittorrent and RecipeSage). Other than that I use it for media access from a MiniPC running Debian w/ Kodi accessing it via SMB (the server doesn't transcode).
