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.

Yeah, if it was a gaming PC it would have no problem doing Nas and steam. I wouldn't bother with kubernetes or docker though. Just use Linux, no need for containers.
Depends heavily on the use case. You can't just rule out a full technology without a proper reason/justificiation beyond "Container bad".
Agreed, for me containers are really nice for playing with new software without dirtying my host install.
Definitely. Just the headache alone of python 3.x here and php version x there and oh boy hope they don't clash is so annoying.
For a simple webhost it makes sense to install bare metal if it doesnt have to scale anyway.
If I need 2 different db versions on the same host for different application stacks it is so easy to just insert a new program.
Would have been cool to add yet another machine to the cluster, especially if i could use the NAS for the kube VolumeClaims. 🤔
I would definitely still go with containers, running baremetal is less secure, more fiddly and less reproducible
I think you are right indeed, i had the idea to maybe use the GC for AI stuff and play with it. I would probably go with kube and add the NAS in longhorn (that i already set up)
