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.

i dont think alot of ppl need a super small comp. it comes with disadvantages. harder or more limited upgrades.
I'd say the opposite - most people work fine on what's available in minis/tiny today (which is surprisingly a lot).
It's us power users/gamers that need more. Even then, some minis have impressive specs.
As for upgrading, well, it's not like you can swap in the next gen of cpu - memory and storage are pretty much all you can upgrade even in a full desktop. Even video is limited to the generation of the motherboard.
thats kinda true. (even excluding gemini lynx user like myself) comps and phones have reached overkill for most users. therefore sff is totally fine for most users.
truth is.. only reason i dont have a bigger pc is that i want flexibility to move apt if my landlord raises rent. thats literally the only reason.
otherwise i would have dual socket, 8 sticks memory, full sized gpu, etc.
i dont mind not having all that. although, it could be used for something.. currently it would be used for nothing.
I've been building monster machines since... Well, a long time ago - back when cases were one color, and black wasn't an option yet.
We all dreamt of big towers, numerous hard drives, multiple fans, so we could play whatever game we wanted.
I'm blown away at what we can do today within the volume of a box of tissues, or less, and at a price that is frankly, cheap.
