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.

Jellyfin runs locally, it's just accessible through a reverse proxy that I have running on the VPS. It's not really practical to run it on a VPS since hosted storage ends up being a lot more expensive and my library is relatively big. Bandwidth hasn't been a huge issue so far though as not too many people use Jellyfin at once. I could see it becoming a problem though if I hosted too many of the other services locally too, like Nextcloud, a Minecraft Server, Teamspeak (for some friends who are eternally stuck in the 2000s), gittea and several more.
I'd also need to run a second machine to host docker containers on or replace my NAS completely with something more powerful, which likely wouldn't make sense economically as I live in a place where electricity is relatively expensive.
