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.

I have a home server with tech illiterate users (Tailscale/VPN won’t be a solution for them), and I’ve been setting up a little blog to keep them updated about content and status. I had an idea of setting up a server status page that displayed the running state of various docker containers so they could easily see if services are running or not.

The dashboards I’ve seen have been geared towards administrators, but I’m looking for something simple, with no control buttons, that is just for display. I was thinking that there might be a dashboard out there with the ability to export the displays as a webpage widget or something along those lines.

I have a VPS I can use just for the online display, so I’m not worried about the networking per se. Needs to run on Debian.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

How about Uptime Kuma status pages? They're separate from the admin page and you can add Docker containers as monitors.

I'm using Uptime Kuma myself can't recommend it enough for simple use cases like this!
