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.

Proxmox is all I use for VM hosting, it is well worth it IMO, I colo metal and I host several virtual machines on it, webservers, ircds, kbin, etc. I specifically use Virtual Machines (KVM) however, it does have the ability to do containerization too (LXC).
Man, I wish I could find a good colo solution that wouldn't kill me with fees. VPS isn't bad cost-wise, but I'd really like to be able to throw as much hardware as I want at it without paying $1k/mo.
I use Dacentec, their colo prices are really reasonable and start @ $40/month, it is well worth it when you have your own hardware and you can load whatever you want in it. I've had no issues with uptime or stability either.
Thanks for the info! I'll definitely check them out. You can fit quite a bit of compute in 1U these days. And $40/mo is far more decently priced than other colo solutions I've seen on the west coast.
