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:

  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.

Pretty much what the title says, I was wondering, since I want to invest on self hosting applications and my raspberry pi 3 b+ can barely function. I don't have enormous expectations, just docker containers, nextcloud, pihosted, jellyfin... Any further suggestions (regarding the hardware) will be much appreciated.

Not a bad idea, however I've had problems with some of the firmware (I think, maybe it's the kernel) on external HDDs causing them to power off when not in use for long periods of time. For some reason it doesn't happen with internal drives so it must be the enclosure or the way the system deals with the drive.
