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.

debian can be used with sysvinit, runit, or openrc. another good option is gentoo. yes im seriously recommending gentoo for a server. i have a few friends that use gentoo for their server os and they all say its great. its very stable as long as you stick to the amd64 branch instead of ~amd64. if you dont want to get into the kernel stuff you can easily use a -bin kernel.
I've been considering gentoo since I used it on a chromebook. I like the binary packages but I worry about stuff that isn't because the hardware is getting pretty old. I mighy try it if I replace it though.
