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.

CasaOS is fine, but the downside of tools like it is you don't really know what's going on under the hood, so if/when something breaks it may be really hard to fix.
But if it works for you I don't see a reason to change. Just make sure you've got reliable backups following the 3-2-1 rule.
What exactly is the 321 rule?
3 copies, 2 media, 1 off-site
It's basically the minimum level of redundancy you should have for storing important data.
3 total copies, 2 different types of storage, 1 of them offsite.
Backups also need to be tested like twice a year or so, do a restore as a test (full if you can, but partial is something at least) and make sure the data is what you expect.
