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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Ask yourself what your "job" in the homelab should be: do you want to manage what apps are available or do you want to be a DB admin? Because if you are sharing DB-containers between multiple applications, then you've basically signed up to checking the release notes of each release of each involved app closely to check for changes like this.

Treating "immich+postgres+redis+..." as a single unit that you deploy and upgrade together makes everything simpler at the (probably small) cost of requiring some more resources. But even on a 4GB-ram RPi that's unlikely to become the primary issue soon.
