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.

I've been backing up to a dedicated hard disk within the same server for all my backups in case my disks fail. And as I run more and more services, the concern of disks failures grow bigger.

I'm looking for a cheapish off-site backup solution and I'm just curious what everyone does for their 3-2-1 backup solutions.

Came here to comment this "obscure" combination. That I use. Lol

Kopia is a solid bit of software. I run it on my VPS's, my homelab and my desktop/laptops. All to a single Backblaze repo.

I just switched to Kopia and B2 a few months back and it is working great so far. I backup my machines with Kopia to a local Unraid box on my network running Kopia server. Then the Kopia repo on the Unraid box is synced up to Backblaze B2 nightly.

I'm only backing up around 200 GB of data so the B2 storage is something like $1 a month.
