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.

exactly, when for example the nextcloud documentation says:
is not exactly clear that all the data will be 100% lost when the docker container is closed
And when it says more down in the docs "just use volumes to persist data" - yeah how to backup those volumes? No mention at all...
Should tell to mount a directory rather than a volume. Backup a directory is easy and everyone can do it, backup a docker volume, good luck, your data has an invisible time bomb
Docker volumes are just directories in /var/lib/docker/volumes
yes but does a noob know that? A directory placed where he typed the command first is much easier to find
