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’ve been looking all over for something in that price range, where did you find them for those prices?
Ebay. Or whatever is your preferred local classified app.
Thank you
If you are fine with the slim: US amazon.
Bruh, I love you.
Do prefer the Elite Desk though. The Pro only has one drive bay, so you'd have to use an adaptor to use the slim optical bay for a 2.5" drive. The Elite has 2x 3.5" bays and one 2.5" bay plus an NVMe slot so you can build a decent starter NAS. It's also got 4 DIMM slots for up to 64 GB of memory and if you get a 7th gen Intel with it, it'll have hardware accelerated transcoding.
Most of my services use a network mounted drive so storage isn’t really a factor (although the more the merrier of course).
My main bottleneck is computation power.
In that case a SFF would be better than either. There are great deals in the used market.
