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.

Hi!

2 of my drives failed recently (as well as an external drive), plus my faithful HP Proliant Gen 8 is ripe for retirement (I'm small potatoes compared to you guys).

So I bought a mini-PC (with a N100). I'm considering going all SSDs.

What are the cheapest ones? They can be slow.

Is there a "storage SSD" category?

I've looked at OEMs but they're not that interesting, or I didn't know where to look.
Aliexpress is full of fakes. As is the second hand market. Or it's legit but as expensive as new.

Thanks for reading!
