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.

Hi, thanks. I've been testing out NextCloud and it might be a bit too bloated and buggy for me (document editor iffy on mobile and encountering files and folders being falsely locked and thus cannot be interacted with) so I might give sftp a go.
Is there a dockerhub project you would reccomend? I've been looking at sftpgo (https://hub.docker.com/r/drakkan/sftpgo) as a option?
In the past, when I've used SFTP, I just use the openssh docker container with a mount of my filesystem (since SFTP uses SSH). Particularly this image: https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/openssh-server
I can't speak to sftpgo as I haven't used it, but from looking it up it seems that some people like it, although it's a pain to set up. If you want something simple I'd still just go with openssh.
