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:

  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.

This. And build my own instead of going with synology.

I've been pretty happy with my Synology NAS. Literally trouble-free, worry-free, and "just works". My only real complaint is them getting rid of features in the Photos app, which is why I'm still on their old OS.

But I'd probably build a second NAS on the cheap, just to see how it compares :)

What OS would you go with if you had to build one?

I’m happy with synology too for the most part. But I like a bit more flexibility I’d probably build one and use truenas or unraid.
