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.

anybody setup and use garagefs (https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/) cluster from your house? It looks pretty instresting. I have been debating on setting up s3 compatible storage for sometime and using something like s3drive app https://s3drive.app/ for file syncing, also have buckets for backups and what not. I have seen a few people use minio for this but garagefs looks to be a little simpler. now and days I try to go simple where I can as my time is limitted to fiddle with things when they brake.

What have been your experience with it? is it worth it?

I am gonna try and get a small setup going to play around with it and test it out for a bit and to see whats up before commiting to a multi Tb deployment.

I've always seen these self hosted S3 API compatible services as something a developer would use for testing.

Could maybe simplify the solution with https://syncthing.net/ or https://restic.net/ for self hosted backups.
