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.

Use a old PC with Pfsense, Opnsense, or OpenWRT, as you can buy a MELLANOX CONNECTX-3 for like $25 on ebay, and you can get a Good AP that supports OpenWRT for like $70-$100, and a switch for like $120 that has one 10Gb in and one 10Gb out with 4-8 2.5Gb ports. I do recommended Opnsense then you can have IPS etc. https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/ips.html
This is a good idea, just be aware you're going to pay a premium to power an old pc compared to an embedded system
The power cost to run some systems 24/7 is like $10-$50+ a year.
