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.

My wife and I are living full time in a campervan as we travel. I have a couple pi4's, mainly for low-power-consuption reasons. One pi4 is dedicated to Home Assistant, and another one runs our nas.
The Home Assistant pi also runs Grafana, Postgres/TimescaleDB, MQTT broker, and a few other HA addons
Right now, our nas is just a single ssd attached via USB, but that's more than enough right now for the essentials. Eventually the nas will run mergerFS and rclone and automatically back up our data (encrypted) to multiple cloud providers but it's just a starting point
I have a third pi4 running misc software and is kinda my scratch pad, the main thing it does right now is talk to our solar controllers and renogy batteries thru rs485/modbus-rtu using some custom software I wrote in typescript and then publishes that data on the mqtt bus, aggregates it, and then advertises it correctly to get it into Home Assistant and from HA, into grafana
Oh, and I also have a Linksys E8450 running openWRT as our router / ax-wap
