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.

No, it's fine. Especially for people who self host. Use what you have available to you as best you can
Depends on your use case. A gigabit connection and hard drives are fine for something like a personal media server or simple file storage but if you wanted to edit video or play games from the NAS, you might look into upgrading to SSDs and getting a faster connection to the PC
@a_fancy_kiwi Exactly! In a business environment where you need to squeeze every possible penny and every second of downtime is money lost, OP is introducing additional potential points of failure.
In a homelab where downtime is just an inconvenience? Go for it! Try it for yourself and see how you like it!
