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.

Additional stuff you may be interested in:
Caddy for reverse proxy (accessing your services with a nice URL instead of IP address and port numbers)
PiHole for DNS-level ad-blocking and other useful router functionality
Look for a backup solutions for your config files, maybe you can handle this at Proxmox level but I don't have experience with that.
I'll def get pihole! Meant to write it down but forgot. Caddy seems super helpful too
For backing up config files, would GitHub be fine? Ik microslop bought it (boooo! tomato!) but is there another foss alternative I should use instead?
Be careful before uploading your config files to a public location like GitHub, you don't want to inadvertently publish some secrets like passwords, API keys and such. A copy to an external drive should do the trick just fine as a starting point.
Sweet, I'll throw it on a flash drive for the time being, then eventually also get it on my NAS after it's all set up
