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 spent some time last week learning both Ansible and Podman Quadlets. They are a powerful duo, especially for self hosting.
Ansible is a desired state system for Linux. Letting you define a list of servers and what their configuration should be, like "have podman installed" and "have this file at this location with this content".
Podman quadlets is a system for defining podman containers as a service. You define the container, volumes, and networks all in essentially Systemd unit files.
Mixing the two together, I can have my entire podman setup in a format that can be pushed to any server in seconds.
And of course everything is text files that git well.
