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.

Proxmox is great. I run each service in its own lxc/vm. Many of the vms also run docker. Probably overkill, but backups and restores via Proxmox Backup Server are super easy when segregated this way
This. Unless you want to go through the hell of multiple redundant architecture to deal with updates breaking things and backups. If you are The only person who is maintaining the multiple services that you’re running the backup feature alone is the reason to go with Proxmox. Upgrade to a lcx container didn't go like you thought it would, roll back the backup, 30 sec and done. Also making liberal use of alpine have made it smooth and simple.
where do you run PBS? in a vm on the main proxmox host?
Yes that's exactly how I run it. I backup the PBS vm separately also, in case the host goes down
LXC on the host for me. Make sure it never backs itself up though.
