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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

As title states. I'm looking for a drivebender replacement. I've been eyeing drivepool and it's probably what I'm going with but I'd like to know what else might be out there. This is for a JBoD setup. Backups happen to offsite location, so I'm not worried about backups.

I know this isn't the answer you want but ditch windows. There's a million better ways to do it better on BSD or linux

I think my main thing to is, if something breaks my wife can figure it out even without me around. If I go to BSD or linux...well cards are off the table at that point.

That's fair enough. I just accepted that I'm always going to have to fix the computer issues no matter what. So I just make it easier on myself.

Reasonable justification as well
