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 use a IONOS vps from the XS tier for your exact usecase! It's only 1€/month and comes with 1 vcore, 1GB RAM and 10 GB SSD storage. Connection is fast too (400 MBit/s+) and data transfer is free (fair use). It comes with one public IPv4 adress.
IONOS is the hosting and cloud division of 1&1, a large ISP here in Germany. Super reliable and zero issues for over 3 years of continous use! I had my fair share of problems with smaller and somewhat dubious hosters before, so now I stick to the established ones.
They have datacentres in the US & Spain too, btw. You can also choose OVH (big french hoster) with locations in Germany, France, Canada etc., but they were more expensive last time I checked.
The IONOS management website is great too. They have free snapshots, paid backups, (web) KVM access and a configurable firewall.
Thanks for the recommendation, that pricing looks neat!
Thanks for the recommendation. Their offerings look pretty affordable.
