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.

I tried setting up the all in one container on a computer I have at home and it was a bit of a mess to get set up. Back in the day I used an ansible script to set up nextcloud and that seemed much better. Any advice or pointers?

I use the linuxserver images for Nextcloud. Have worked pretty well for me over the past few years.

Other opinion: I used that one for a few years and then it became unbootable, forever loading the login page with not an error in the logs (after multiple times of having to diagnose update failures in the past).

I found out that I personally didn't need nextcloud after being completely unable to use it for months

This has some limitations if I remember correctly. It doesn't use PostgreSQL, and I don't think you can use Collabora or whatever, so editing documents in your browser won't work.

It's quite possible that I'm wrong about that.

The container was rebuilt a couple of years ago and I don't think it has any significant limitations now. There are examples using mariadb (which I'm using) and I don't see why PostgreSQL wouldn't be configurable in the same way.
