I deleted Google in 30 days — diary
Photos, files, calendar, search — replaced in four weekends with free self-hosted apps. The hard part was starting; the shocking part was how little I missed.

We have a recipe server?? → Mealie
Mealie imports any recipe URL, plans the week, and auto-builds shopping lists — self-hosted, ad-free, free. Grandma's lasagna deserves better than an ad-farm app.

I've had to manually keep devices charged for years just to keep their batteries from discharging too far while I'm not actively using them.
Just made an automation that charges devices every 3 days when I'm home, based on the presence of my phone on the network (so they don't charge when I'm away, which wouldn't be safe).
This will be so useful!

Who reads your stuff — A or B?
Cloud that scans your files vs a server that can't. Search that profiles you vs SearXNG that forgets you instantly. Comment which one you'd switch first.

Your data receipt, printed
Location 24/7, contacts, scanned messages, profiled searches, sampled voice — the receipt big tech never prints. Self-hosted apps have no line items because there's no one to collect for.

The group chat just learned why we self-host
Account flagged by a classifier, 8 years of photos gone, no appeal path. It happens daily. A server in your closet has no ban button — that's the entire argument, in one chat.

Ok. To do Uncloud on my server I need to run a local registry (unregistry can work as well, but registry is not hard). Then move my services (web, dns, prometheus, s3) over.
Next backup local gits and decide if I need local forgejo (also has registry....)
Then reinstall with Fedora and reapply Uncloud -

@innocentzero As I understand it, a #Homelab is the entire IT setup, like compute, storage, networking, containers, databases, etc, whether on multiple physical "homeservers" and devices or just one.
#Homeserver is just a single server, like pc, rpie, etc that you run from home. #Selfhosting
