Project mention: Making a free, fully-featured, infinitely scalable IaaS with predictable pricing | dev.to | 2024-05-13Solutions like pocketbase and coolify come close to solving these problems. However, I wouldn't choose either as I fear architecture lock-in as much as vendor lock-in. Especially in the case of pocketbase, I may be forced to rewrite my application if it were to scale overnight.

Sandstorm really had this kind of feeling. Not that it presented as a desktop environment visually - but it offered a much more integrated “computer” of documents versus silod web site apps where you need to open each site to see the files in the app. https://sandstorm.io/
I really thought this article was going to offer a solution, not just enumerate the problems. I'm already all too familiar with the problems.
I like what Umbrel[0] is doing. They're essentially expecting that just like computing was able to move from centralized mainframes to homes, servers are poised to make the same migration.
I think they really need to solve redundancy, though. If I'm to self-host anything important on a home server, I need to know I'll have some way to use it even if my home server fails, especially if I'm not at home when it happens.
I'd love to see some kind of system where I could partner up with other Umbrel users for backups/the ability to restore connectivity. If I knew that in an emergency, I could call my friend in town or my brother out of state and there was some procedure that would allow me to connect to an encrypted backup of what I'm needing, I would feel a lot better about taking responsibility for my own system.

Project mention: Tips on how to structure your home directory (2023) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-19
Project mention: Google Drive misplaces months' worth of customer data | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-27This is not for everyone, but I host my family photos myself, most recently with this: https://piwigo.org/. I have been doing this since 2007 (started on a different software, called "gallery". Was able to migrate from gallery2 to gallery3 and now piwigo), and so far no major issues. Advantage: I can easily share photos with family, no need for iCloud, Facebook, or indeed any service- they just need a web browser on their desktop computer or phone.
That's basically just a docker-compose.

Project mention: Simplest approach to Kubernetes on dedicated servers? (for CI/CD) | /r/hetzner | 2023-10-04For deploying your apps you could use something like Kubero (https://github.com/kubero-dev/kubero)
Project mention: A self-hosting and educational C optimizing compiler | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-07Yes, consider the case of shecc. It requires just a handful of C code lines to interpret directives set in the C preprocessor. Unlike relying on existing tools like cpp, as, or ld, shecc stands alone as a minimalist cross-compiler. This design could be particularly beneficial for students delving into the study of compiler construction. See https://github.com/sysprog21/shecc/blob/master/src/lexer.c#L...
