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.

I did not realize they had a free tier, thanks!
Certainly! As others have said, don't hang anything worth value on it without an out of band backup strategy, they're famous for unscrupulously deleting things with no warning. Oracle is a miserable company.
Free is free though!
I haven't had my instances deleted, but they do some kind of maintenance blip everyday that my monitoring sees as 3 seconds of downtime, so maybe keep that in mind.
Interesting. I've had two instances running for over 2 years and haven't noticed that. It might be that I just don't notice it though. I'm not scrutinizing it much.
Same. I just run a Minecraft server for my kid and his friends and a static HTML blog, so I'm ok with it.
I'm fairly sure it's a background migration task, and I have a feeling it depends on your region.
