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.

Yeah my server is an i5 using an onboard GPU so it's nothing crazy but it's got 80TB of drive space, so I optimize for what I put my money into.
Hell, sometimes it's even easier to copy the data to my gaming rig, transcode it, and rsync it back. If I'm done playing for the night and about to go to bed and I have like a TV show or something I know has to be transcoded, I'll just queue up a job and let it run while I'm sleeping and script it so it rsyncs everything back when it's done transcoding.
That's definitely a good call. Before I even had a NAS, I'd just throw some movies and stuff on my macbook when I had to travel. Problem is that when you're loading it up, you think you know what you'll want to watch and then later you just wish you had different choices.
