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.

Production is my testing lab, but only in my homelab ! I guess I don't care to perfectly secure my services (really dumb and easy passwords, no 2fa, not hiding plain sight passwords....) because I'm not directly exposing them to the web and accessing them externally via Wireguard ! That's really bad practice though, but any time soon will probably clean up that mess, but right now I can't, I have to cook some eggs...
There are 2 things though I actually do have some more complex workflow:
Rather complex incremental automated backup script for my docker container volumes, databases, config files, compose files.
Self-hosted mini-CA to access all my services via a nice .lab domain and get rid of that pesky warning on my devices.
I always do some tests if my backups are working on a VM on my personal desktop computer, because no backup means that all those years of tinkering for nothing... This will bring up some nasty depression..
Edit: If have a rather small homelab, everything on an old laptop, still quite happy with the result and works as expected.
