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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have an old laptop lying around and I have been meaning to self host some stuff on it but never got around to it.

My biggest limitation is that I only have WIFI and I do not control the network. It's basically your default residential WIFI network.

The only thing I actually need is self-hosted cloud. What can I utilize this laptop for?

I ended up trying it. In theory it's all nice and useful, because it solves the part that I am not comfortable with (router settings, domains and other connection stuff). But then I don't know Kubernetes so I couldn't understand what I was doing and I was not able to troubleshoot it. And I could not connect to my server remotely anyway.

And that's the reason I am taking back what I said. At the end of the day wireguard is your friend.
