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.

How should everything be routed? (lemmy.world)

Edit: I just realized I didn't specify which Switches were Nintendo ones. I'm sorry.

Currently I live in an apartment with multiple access ports (2 of them in use), and I have them all running through a network switch.

Line 2 is connected to a wifi router which is connected to a second network switch which has a steam deck and 2 old Nintendo Switches™ connected.

Line 3 is connected to a small modem which is connected to a desktop PC.

I want to make a home server soon that also runs Home Assistant, so surely there must be a better setup to have everything actually be in the same network right? If I need any additional hardware let me know.

I can replace the wifi router with one that will actually have more than 2 LAN ports as well if needed.

Does this example match your network?

Not quite. How did you make the diagram? I can try making one like that to clarify how everything is connected
