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.

Mmm, forgot about Zabbix, they're actually from my home country and I used to know some people there.
As someone who used Zabbix and stopped because it's an absolute pig, I'm going to recommend Checkmk.
As someone who used Checkmk Raw (the free edition) and stopped because it's an absolute bastard to set up, I'm going to recommend Zabbix.
I'll specify. Installing Checkmk's agent on the servers was fine, but service discovery is completely unreliable (I could never get through a full discovery before it just hung on something unknown) and the web GUI is very difficult to navigate. Unfortunately most of the documentation only covers the paid version, and community support is pretty bad.
Switching to Zabbix was almost plug-and-play by comparison.
As someone reading this thread, I'm stuck in an endless loop.
