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'm going through it rn for Proxmox, it's a pain in the ass.

I think it was better a tad on ESXi, but VMware stuff is a non starter for me at this point.

I still dont understand broadcom’s move except for short term profits. All the kids used to use it, and now they’re on proxmox.

I work in public sector and we’re transitioning away from VMware now, as the people we recruit know proxmox and not VMware.

Just like adobe lets the kids get away with pirating - as that builds following - VMware was giving away single-seat.

In Proxmox VE 8 it was a one click once I enabled IOMMU. Before it required manually copying firmware and editing files.

I can really recommend XCP-ng. For me it strikes a pretty good balance of features and ease of use.
