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.

From a security perspective, it isn’t ideal, but a simple unencrypted external drive might be the best solution.
Backblaze supports encryption and lives in "the cloud". Seems like if they don't currently have a "beneficiary" option, they should add it. Your beneficiary could make a free account, and you add their account as your beneficiary. Until you die, they can't access anything. But if you do, it is all accessible by them and only them.
Bitwarden has a sort of dead-man-switch, I forget the name. But you could use it to give a beneficiary access to whatever you want after you croak.
