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.

I put all my data on a NAS with non-writable snapshots so hackers cannot destroy my data.
What happens if they compromise your device in secret and use it as part of a botnet? Lots of state backed attacks rely on traffic relays provided by compromised devices.
My NAS is behind a firewall and doesn't normally run the types of things you would compromise. (no web browser). They need to break many things at the same time to compromise it. I'm not saying it would be impossible to compromise my NAS, but is is very unlikely just because of how difficult it is. If I'm target of a state level attack I'm sunk anyway.
though offline backups are always a good idea. However they by definition need several days to restore (if they take less than that they are too easy for an attacker to target)
