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.

Thanks for the warning ⚠️🙏

This isn't my first rodeo with ZFS on USB. I've been running USB for a few years now. Recently I ran this particular box through a battery of tests and I'm reasonably confident that with my particular set of hardware it'll be fine. It passed everything I threw at it, once connected to a good port on my machine. But you're generally right and as you can see I discussed that in the testing thread, and I encountered some issues that I managed to solve. If you think I've missed something specific - let me know! 😊
