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 also started on pihole, but switched to Blocky because Blocky is way more DevOps friendly (I run this stuff on microk8s on a Pi cluster).
Then I just ditched it altogether and now use NextDNS. Well worth paying the small fee for. But you obviously don't get the same DIY satisfaction out of it.
But NextDNS is closed source isn't it? Personally I wouldn't trust proprietary software with my entire DNS request history.
Well it's a service I'm paying for, so yes a bit of trust is required. Their privacy policy looks decent as well. As it stands, I trust them more with it than I would my ISP, Google or Microsoft.
You can choose what region to log to (I chose Switzerland) and you can also configure the retention period.
