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.

Mimicing a thread I saw elsewhere.

I generally use this list to name my machines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_objects

For my main server I use loeding: a modified version of Lædingr, a chain forged by Thor to bind and were broken by Fenrir. (Norse Mythology)

As a huge fan of Star Wars content from before Disney got involved and poisoned it (notable exceptions of Rogue One, Andor, some of the animated shows, etc.), I utilize warship names from the Expanded Universe (now called "Legends") - what I like to call True Star Wars.

My main server is Chimaera. My backup server that also performs as an NVR is Lusankya. My separate mostly-NAS server away from my server rack is Admonitor.

I have sci-fi themed names (not all Star Wars - two other franchises represented here, virtual kudos to those who can identify) for the storage pools too (using TrueNAS SCALE on all three servers):

  • Chimaera (Main Server)
    • Star-Forge (Apps/VM Pool)
    • Holocron (Data Pool)
  • Lusankya (Backup + NVR Server)
    • Shadow-Broker (Apps Pool)
    • Resurrection (Backup Pool)
    • Spynet (NVR Pool)
  • Admonitor (NAS Server)
    • Mount-Tantiss (Apps Pool)
    • Datacron (Data Pool)
