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:

  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.

Why is this in self hosted?

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 8 points 4 hours ago

It has a USB port.

in case you want to self-host your own algae, I guess

Can I combine this with my water-cooling setup?

Just give me a 4U tank somewhere where someone else can deal with harvesting the algae and a webcam aimed at it and I can enjoy it just fine from here. For me, selfhosting is mostly about the privacy, not principally about needing to be resistant to loss of Internet connectivity or the like.

I have seen a few guides on growing your own algae including from CodySlab.

Come on, you know there's someone out there trying to work out how to selfhost one of these.

I have a birth bath I don't ever replace the water in. Its like a shrub to me.

Uhhhhhh you should probably at least drain out the placenta fluid...

No, it's essential to the flavor.

You should look up "Walstad planted tank". An all plants aquarium you don't ever have to mess with (except to trim if you want to)
