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.

I recently became interessted in learning about static site generators. So I decided to start a little 11ty blog, in which I teach people, who are new to self-hosting, how to securely set up their own server with Ubuntu and Docker.

For now, I've got my Beginners Guide series as well as a more detailed introduction to SSH and its features. I plan to eventually write down all I've learned about self-hosting in the past 20 years.

Hope it ends up being helpful for some of you.

You mean from one LTS to the next? It's been a while, but as far as I remember, it worked fine on my last server (22.04 to 24.04).

And even if something doesn't work, I can have all my stuff spun up on a new server in less than an hour. But that, of course, depends on the amount of data you host.
