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.

lxcs are just great. love alpine on proxmox.

Actually, most of the guests are VMs (instead of LXCs) because many services I host are most easily deployed via Docker Compose and Docker in LXCs requires workarounds I don't fully understand thr implications of.

i use lcx alpine 3.16 and all i do is add docker docker-cli ...super fast. no hassle.

Heck really? I hadn't considered maybe that was some of my issues.

On proxmox I was able to get a docker compose Ark survival evolved server setup on an Ubuntu lxc without much fuss, a few other docker compose things worked okay also, once I figured out that compose isn't going to create the volumes for me.

Otherwise they've all been too deep for me or require other containers to run which I lose motivation on.
