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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I set it to debug at somepoint and forgot maybe? Idk, but why the heck does the default config of the official Docker is to keep all logs, forever, in a single file woth no rotation?

Feels like 101 of log files. Anyway, this explains why my storage recipt grew slowly but unexpectedly.

Everything I hear about Nextcloud scares me away from messing with it.

I stopped using Nextcloud a couple of years ago after it corrupted my encrypted storage. I'm giving it a try again because of political emergency. But we sure need a long term replacement. Written in Rust or some other sane language.

Nc is great, it really is amazing that it is foss. Sure it isn't the slickest or fastest, and it does need more maintenance than most foss services, but it is also more complex and has so many great features.

I really recommend nc, 99% of the time it just works for me. It just seems that their docker was done pretty poorly imo, but still it just works most of the time.

Just use the official Docker AIO and it is very, very little trouble. It's by far the easiest way to use Nextcloud and the related services like Collabora and Talk.

The price rboem is that the log file is inside the container in the www folder
