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 suspect I'll have an issue after reading many of the comments. This is also an older Dell server. My only real advantage is that it's currently hosting 2 VMs and one is just a test server, so I don't mind losing the data.
Imaging software is a godsend for that sort of thing. I ended up using BartPE for something like that, and it worked great -- it has a free imaging program on it. You only need a removable drive large enough for all your files since it'll compress everything.
