Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Synology user running some docker containers.
Very, very little maintenance. If there's an update for something on docker, a simple click in the container manager, and it's done. Yes, I can automate, but prefer to manually do these as many of the docker apps I use are in high development and I like to know what's changing with each version.
Synology packages update easily, and the system updates happen only once in a while. A click and reboot.
I've tried to minimize things as much as possible, and to make things easier for me. One day, someone in my family will need to take over, and I don't want to over-complicate things for them, lest they lose all our family photos, documents, etc.
I probably spend more time keeping the fans on my actual NAS clean of dust, than I do maintain the software end of things. LOL
