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 own over 4k titles in physical copies. So probably closer to 5-6k discs. As the other person said…backups. I’ve already found a few degraded discs as I’ve been working through.
Pretty much everything in the basement is some variant of linux. Couple more boxes(not pictured) higher in the rack that are just recycled desktops in rack mount cases. Some of the other stuff is windows because of the software being used. I use Mac stuff at work cause that’s what they provide. I don’t really care what OS. I just need it to work and the quickest way for me to get whatever it is done. I’ll reformat stuff to whatever when this project is done and I move on to the next.
4,000 disks is insane
Maybe post to datahorders as well. I can see why you need so many drives
