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.

What do people think of their hardware in general?
I have some caddies HDD and NVMe. I think their gear is fairly mid. some aspects are quite nice but other aspects is dog water.
I've been very happy with their external HDD enclosures, and various USB chargers.
Their USB car charger has been the only one to survive Canadian winters and summers for more than a year (going on 4), which is impressive.
I'd say their quality is as good, or better, than most of the Anker stuff I've purchased.
They have some of the best USB cables (strongest, least breakable). Used to be cheap too until they started spending big bucks on marketing.
As a comparison against Anker, the cables are thinner - almost as thin as the cheap unbranded cables. Or at least this is what my ugreen cables are like.
You need those metal ones with braided cable
This is what I was already comparing. Ugreen make thinner cables?
In my experience they're very solid. They also have thicker PD charging cables.
