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.

If you're ok leaving a monitor plugged in (but can be off), my go-to is Parsec. Bonus points is that it works without needing a VPN (it uses UDP NAT hole punching like Chrome Remote Desktop). If you'll be far far away from home, Chrome Remote Desktop tends to be slightly more reliable over high latency than parsec for me - but that could just be because I tuned mine for super low latency when nearby.
Good news is, you can run both at the same time and see how they treat ya! (And both are free for base use, but parsec has a handful of premium features you can pay for if you like it) I have Parsec, CRD, RDP, and SSH all set up in various forms to get back "home" when I'm not.
