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.

You don't connect to the GPS satellites. On "client side" GPS is passive. Periodically getting the GPS position and sending it via mobile data is actually quite "cheap" regarding battery. Good GPS tracking hardware can get up to 40-90 days availability without having to recharge.
And there are cheap options on aliexpress that are solar powered
Then please point me to all of the cheap, long lasting options that are small and light enough to clip to a dog's collar and last for 40-90 days on a charge.
Edit: I'm waiting......these pedants like to pounce on my sloppy use of the word "connect" but haven't actually presented me with a product that proves me wrong.
