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.

Hey, I'm an American moving to NZ (Whangerei, Northland) in a few months and am trying to device if I should fly my desktop/server over or just build a new one there.

What's the general availability of server and desktop parts there? Any recommended local shops, or do I need to import everything from Asia?

Pbtech is one of the major retailers. Their reputation is so-so (in terms of service level and dealing with warranties) but at least will give you a good benchmark on what you can buy and it's cost.
