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.

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

I Built a Python script that uses a local Ollama LLM to automatically find and add movies to Radarr.

It picks random films from your library, asks Ollama for similar suggestions based on theme and atmosphere, validates against OMDb, scores with plot embeddings, then adds the top results to Radarr automatically.

Examples:

  • Whiplash → La La Land, Birdman, All That Jazz
  • The Thing → In the Mouth of Madness, It Follows, The Descent
  • In Bruges → Seven Psychopaths, Dead Man's Shoes

Features:

  • 100% local, no external AI API
  • --auto mode for daily cron/Task Scheduler
  • --genre "Horror" for themed movie nights
  • Persistent blacklist, configurable quality profile
  • Works on Windows, Linux, Mac

yeah, I think the whole "water" argument really dilutes the case against data centers.

On a serious note, the argument works for areas that already struggle to supply enough water for consumers. Otherwise, we should be focusing more on the power stress to the grid, and the domino effect on supply chain of hardware cost increases that it's happening across many industries. It started with GPUs, now it's CPU, storage, networking equipment, and other components.

If these prices are too high for a couple of years, we'll start seeing generalized price increases as companies need to pass along the costs to consumers.

I think the supply chain issue is probably the most pressing out of all of them. The other points people have are either non-issues or a result of dropping usage hogs into existing electrical infrastructure. Infrastructure can be updated, though.

Supply chain is different. There isn't a supply shortage of chips, its that profitability dictates you should sell them to datacenters or adjacent industry. Unlike infrastructure where you can just build out more, adding more supply for chips just means you have more to sell to datacenters. Since the demand is there, end of day profits will always win.
