docker-ce v29 update somehow messed up my homelab so badly that I had to downgrade to v28 to restore my system.

Self hosting essentially stores all of your data on your hard drive, but it also allows access to that via local network (while at home) and over internet via secured tunnel (e.g. Wireguard tunnel, Tailscale) while away from home.

Thanks for the info.

Is it a docker based solution? If yes, can you please let me know if you faced any specific challenge in setting it up?

and a lot of random external drives

Somehow it rings home :-)

Miniflux - https://miniflux.app/

https://tailscale.com/ This is essentially a mesh Wireguard Tunnel connectivity that ensures only you can access your service remotely.

:D

Tailscale is going public, so I don’t really trust them anymore

Even if the source code is open?

In general, for self-hosting, we hardly rely on remote service/server. The whole idea of self-hosting is to shun dependency on external service/server, and run everything on your own hardware and network. So that every aspect of the service is in your control. I don’t think self-hosting comes with much risk, unless you make your service available on Internet.

On a side note: you can remotely access any service running on home network via Tailscale[1] / Cloudflare Tunnel. Your services are never exposed on Internet. Moreover, you don’t need to rely on Plex for that.

Just a stupid question - Is self-hosting (and this forum) only applies to open source products?

At first I didn’t noticed the 2nd image, and started wondering what kind of children book this is :P

Using Miniflux for more than year now with 0 issue so far.

My Nextcloud AIO :)

Nope, the server itself.

I though Signal Android client is open source and I can changed the server url if I can get server selfhosted.

I actually don’t want to run it on regular signal network. Just want to self-host it on my home server, and allow home devices to use it to communicate via tailscale.

Basically my own private signal network that my devices connected to.

my bad :(

1GB network throughout is good enough for home use, isn’t?
