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.

-
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.

Yeah, personally I'm optimistic, but I'd be in a boat of expecting access to be shut off one day, and ready to start uploading to a new provider at any moment
I'm only concerned insofar as I don't know of a good alternative, and really don't want to spend the time shifting everything to a new system. I have 3 VPSes and 4(? 5?) home computers backing up to B2. The major ones, I have also backing up to disk, so really the risk for me is in that gap period while I find and set up on a new backup service.
This will be beyond annoying, but for me not catastrophic. Mainly, I've liked B2 - the price, and how easy it's been to use. I understand the UI; it's pretty straightforward, and it's directly supported by a lot of software. It would be a real shame if it went under due to mismanagement.
Also: another example supporting my theory that one of the major flaws in Capitalism is public trading markets. This shit wasn't an issue before they went public.
