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.

Damn. I paid racknerds $25/yr for 2cpu and 2.5gb of RAM. Runs great, and rather lean to be honest.

Wow, killer price! I need to check that out. I’ve had my Digital Ocean account for so long I’m on autopilot lmao.

There's a whole community around finding affordable hosting for a variety of use cases. https://lowendtalk.com/ I found my current provider there and on Black Friday they were offering an exclusive lowendtalk deal (called the 6666) where I pay $66 every 2 years and get 6gb ram 6vcpus and 66GB disk and 6tb transfer on a 10gbps line. these smaller hosts won't have all the same features digital ocean and vultr have like 1-click templates.

I honestly don’t really need any of the 1-click stuff. I pretty much live in the command line, so the main thing is bringing down cost for the future.

That’s a really good deal! Thanks for the heads up. I’m gonna start looking around.

I found out about it here. There was a thread a few weeks back. Search for racknerds in this community.

I think they're still running their 4th of July special.

Thanks for this link! I'm on Vultr, which is good, but it's around $7 a month with only 25GB of storage. Think I'll pick up one of the Ethernet Servers deals.
