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:

  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 only discovered this recently, and it's very handy.

Piping scripts directly to bash is a security risk. You can always download the scripts, inspect them and run locally if you so choose.

AUR repo items don't necessarily clean themselves up properly either. So I'm not sure why you think that's part of some requirement for the scripts if we're comparing the 2.

Edit: But in the case of this specific repo... You delete the lxc or vm that you created.
