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.

Pi-hole. Get rid of at least some ads on the network level. Maybe add unbound for a faster DNS response.

I like AdGuard Home myself.

Using unbound on opnSense with blacklists. Works wonders and do not require an additional device.

I use unbound with pi-hole inside an Ubuntu lxc container. No additional device needed.

Pi-hole can run inside a docker container no problem. In fact I have it running on my unraid server that way.

I keep one in a docker container and one in an actual pi, that way I can perform updates and upgrades without interrupting DNS service at the house.

This is the way.
