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.

Note: I am not affiliated with this project in any way. I think it’s a very promising alternative to things like MinIO and deserves more attention.

What's the difference between this and minio?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago (14 children)

I remember when minio just started and it was small and easy to run. Nowadays, it's a full-blown enterprise product, though, full of features you’ll never care about in a homelab eating on your cpu and ram.

Garage is small and easy to run. I’ve been toying with it for several months and I’m more than happy with its simple API and tiny footprint. I even run my (static html) blog off it because it's just easier to deploy it to a S3-compatible API.

Minio now describes itself as "S3 & Kubernetes Native Object Storage for AI" - lol

Guess it's time to look for alternatives if you're not doing ML stuff

Of course it does AI now!

But seriously, the easiest guide for minio setup meant using their operator. The garage guide was: spin up this single deploy and it works from there.
