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.

Hey, it's a 2005 server, it can't do IT mode, it only have Ultra SCSI 70GB drives, a 10 GB nic would be useless (it's only PCI, not PCIe) DDR2 RAM and 1 core processors only too!

I'll probably install a Debian, I had fun trying Windows 2003 Server. It has a Floppy drive too, I'll definitely keep the DVD and Floppy drive in there! (the CD Drive is IDE btw) And you can only configure the RAID array via a CD provided by IBM (No, you cannot boot this CD from an USB key, as the software on the CD is looking for the dvd drive and not an USB key)

Most of everything you said would be accurate for recent servers tho, but not here, not at all ahah!
