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.

What are some text resources you'd recommend to brush up on basics? (lemm.ee)

Given the repeat questions you can find here on basics, it's kind of surprising there doesn't appear to be a commonly shared FAQ, website, or book going over some of the basics.

E.g. ways to safely connect to home servers over the internet while away, when it may be better to spin up services on a VPS instead, etc.

Have I been overlooking some shared text-based resource concerning the subject, or...?

Also fwiw I did look at the sidebar links, and the awesome-sysadmin link has links to sections for blogs/books, but as of writing this, they were empty sections.

https://esc.sh/projects/devops-from-scratch/ is a good resource. Most questions you have (that are more specific) are easily searchable on the internet.

Thanks, however while there are some rough notes in the Github link, it looks like this is primarily a series of videos? I was asking for text resources as I prefer those for a variety of reasons, and in this specific case it's because it's much easier to copy over any referenced scripts and clearly read commands mentioned.
