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.

These small little handy-dandy devices seem to get more and more popular. Anyone here chipped in for a JetKVM yet? Looks and sounds pretty solid. Are there a lot of you that have aquired a nanoKVM?

Power issues can cause problems that the hardware glitches into states it should not be. Changing something in the BIOS or updating it. Hardware defects. OS upgrade fails (Kernel bug causes the network driver to fail) Etc. Etc.

Those devices are not for the weekly "oh my setup failed" its for the once in 10 years "i am on vacation and the server is not reachable and for some reasons my system crashed and has not rebooted by its own"

And for below 100€ it's a no-brainer.
