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.

I'm looking into self hosted and open source nvr options and frigate looks like the right fit for me. I'm curious what hardware others are running it on and how many cameras they have. How many people are running it in home assistsnt?

I would add, Corral TPU is nearly essential. But do not forgot about video decoding acceleration. I'm running couple of 4k H.265 cameras without HW acceleration, and ffmpeg consumes good amount of CPU out of my Ryzen 3600. So pick hardware which can decode streams from your cameras.
