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.
For Example
- Service: Dropbox - Alternative: Nextcloud
- Service: Google Reader - Alternative: Tiny Tiny RSS
- Service: Blogger - Alternative: WordPress
We welcome posts that include suggestions for good self-hosted alternatives to popular online services, how they are better, or how they give back control of your data. Also include hints and tips for less technical readers.

I don't understand what you mean with "does decreases the hardware usage in some idle time"?
I also don't understand what "overloading" Pop means.
Light virtualization and a few services - and sometimes also your desktop, when needed - shouldn't be a problem, but it also depends on which services and how many.
In general, containerization is easier than virtualization, and has less overhead. If you want to stick with Pop, then you can install
docker
,docker-compose
andportainer
. Portainer provides a pretty decent web interface to create and manage containers.You can make VMs possible by adding
cockpit
andcockpit-machines
, so that you can create and manage VMs (I'm guessing that cockpit is available for Pop).Otherwise
Proxmox
is a free hypervisor, based on Debian and pretty easy to learn, and then you could have one VM for your self-hosted stuff, and one VM, with Pop on it, to use as your desktop. Turn off when it's not needed, turn on when it is.From there, you can build out your homelab in a somewhat modular fashion, which will also mean that modifications will be less likely to break something, and easier to undo or fix.
Decreases, such a lowering CPU clock when no load is present. Overloaded, such a shitty software that comes with it with potential security risks, which some of them start with the system load and use resources.
Yes I planned using docker for each of the tools that supports it from docker hub
Thanksmfor the reply
