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.

I've heard good things about using https://thingino.com/ https://github.com/themactep/thingino-firmware/wiki
There was a post 8 days ago that got quite some feedback

I'm just testing out thingino, but it's currently lacking features compared to amcrest.
There's no option to only save video when events trigger, so it fills the card quickly.
And I can't get the tinyCam app to access recorded files, so I have to use the web-based file browser.
But then Amcrest's apps (both old and new) have do many faults and glitchy behavior.
I'm referring to Amcrest Pro cameras, btw. They are the ones that let you configure them to be independent of their cloud service, write to a NAS, etc.
