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.

I check the return code from the borg backup job and issue a notification to my phone via NTFY if there was a problem.
Please note that return code 1 (warning) will be issued if a file changes while borg is backing it up so it's very common if you backup log files for example. Which is why I only notify for code 2 or greater.
You can also do it the other way and simply issue a notification no matter what happened, and just list the return code as-is. This is probably better since you also get confirmation that the backup job is actually running.
