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.

Could you elaborate on syncthing hub and spoke?
Yeah I saw a post about it a long time ago on Reddit for users with lots of devices
Basically it is just setting up one or two "central devices" that know all the client devices, but not linking the client devices individually.
IE: One server is connected to your phone, laptop, tablet, desktop, etc. But the phone is not directly connected to your laptop or desktop or tablet.
To be fair I don't actually know if this is the best approach anymore or if just connecting all of them in a mesh is better 🤷
Here is a forum post describing it.
My guess would be that each of their devices (phone, laptop, etc) syncs back to their server/NAS, but they do not sync to each other. The server/NAS is the hub, and each device is a spoke.
