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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Folks - I need help.

I bought the UDR7 router during the Black Friday sale just to see what the hype was about and since then I’ve already placed multiple orders for hundreds of dollars of equipment. As we speak I have a cart full of over a thousand dollars more equipment that I’m on the cusp of submitting and and there is no end in sight.

If there is anyone out there who can talk me out of this rabbit hole I fear this may be the last chance for salvation

My name is ccunning and I’m a Unifi-holic…

I've seen a few posts on reddit while trying to solve it, but no idea how widespread the issue is. There certainly isnt a solution that I've found yet.

Other than this issue, I agree, protect is quite good, but there isnt much point having nice 4k cameras if they dont work correctly...

Oh, also, had 2 cloudkeys develop disk problems within weeks of owning them, so that was very annoying. 3rd one is going strong though.

How was support experience wrt replacing the bad cloudkeys?

Went through the local PC shop, so not too bad, but still frustrating.
