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 have a 2 x 8TB in RAID1 NAS at a family members house and I also have an OVH dedicated server with 2 x 480GB in RAID1 and 2 x 8TB in RAID1. I use rclone for my backups and keep deleted files for 30 days on the NAS and 120 days on the OVH dedicated server. Both the NAS and server connect back to my home network using WireGuard.
The OVH dedicated server also runs numerous virtual machines that host websites as well as backups of my netbox and mediawiki instance I run at home(they sync nightly).
How much do you pay for that OVH server?
I got it when they had a deal about a month ago so it's only $65.09/month (Canadian) on a 12 month commitment.
I feel it's just the right price given the specs. Xeon-E 2274G, 32GB RAM, 2 x 480GB SSD, 2 X 8TB HDD, and unmetered 500/500 connection.
I've currently got 6 VMs on it and the Load Average is 0.38, 0.36, 0.36 and the CPU stays under 20%. I have plans to add 3 or 4 more. The VMs are mostly for family members websites/blogs, super low traffic.
Cool, that's a beefy machine. Way more expensive than I would be comfortable with but you do get lots of power.
