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.

I run a Nextcloud for my family and then serve the same folders again via samba to the same users. Don't need a separate NAS for this, just activate the samba service on the same machine.
Regarding the pirate ship, I don't know. I haven't tried that yet.
So uploads go via nc and samba distributes stuff back to the personal devices? Or what does samba actually do in this case?
Samba makes the same files available via another protocol. Sometimes you prefer a web browser interface, or the nextcloud companion app, and sometimes you prefer the Windows explorer.
Ah, thanks for the clarification!
