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:

  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.

The Lemmy instance might need access to large storage.

My instance's image cache is like 230GB. Plus a bunch more for the db. Can confirm storage is needed.

(unrelated question 😶 - anyone running pictrs 0.5 on local storage happily?)

Thanks for the heads up.

I plan on using digital ocean's Spaces (s3-alike) where possible and also it's intended to be a personal instance, at least to start - just for me to federate with others and subscribe to my communities. Given that, do you think it'll still use much disk (block device) storage?

Might be time to familiarize myself with DO's disk pricing...
