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'm looking for a new UPS to replace an almost 10 years old APC beast that's having issues, but I'm not sure what to buy.

I'll be using it to power a small home server and some network equipment in an area where there are occasional power outages (but they last 2-3 hours). My requirements are:

  • 300-600€ range
  • At least 1500VA, 900W
  • Doesn't make noise unless it's on battery
  • Must not require proprietary software to monitor it or to calibrate the battery and other basic stuff (if it works with apcupsd or NUT it would be perfect)
  • No weird battery format

What would you recommend?

Thanks!

I'm a big fan of cyberpower. If you want full remote management, buy one with the web control card, I'm pretty sure you can do anything via that. You should be able to get one in your pricerange.
