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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Awesome stuff. I'm currently reusing my router and media device to host a file sever, radicale (contacts, calendar and tasks) and immich. All this stuff on old HDDs taken from old laptops with a usb enclosure. Get redundancy with rsyncing between drives and everything was essentially low cost. It's not pretty or the fastest but good enough for my needs.
Netbird and zerotier servers in my router to connect my devices as I'm behind CGNAT. Essentially have contacts, calendar, tasks, files and photos all under my control. No fancy media player but don't have time to watch films or series outside. Immich was the last step to get rid of google stored files. Good riddance.
Can you access immich from outside of your network? If so, how do you do it? I’d like to do it, too, without accidentally opening everything to the internet haha
Yes, either Netbird or Zerotier allow me to connect to my home lan without exposing ports to the outside. Netbird seems more user friendly to setup and there's good documentation for openwrt.
