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.

Good points -- I've never ran into any issues with UniFi personally.
At the time I was self-hosting the UniFi Controller on my Proxmox server for a switch and an AP. So i suppose your mileage may vary with UniFi.
As far as routers go, I've been running a pfsense for a while and its been great. There is definitely a bit of a learning curve and it's not something that I'd recommend to someone who has little networking knowledge. Once you understand how to work with it, there is very little you can't do.
Mikrotik has pop-ed up on my radar recently too, might have to give them a look.
Edit: Phrasing.
