• Show HN: Stop paying for Dropbox/Google Drive, use your own S3 bucket instead

  > I dislike Dropbox for reasons that aren't technical, but the big thing for me is that I want either E2EE, or control/ownership of where my data is stored. You could run something like Cryptomator on top of Dropbox: https://cryptomator.org/ It even has (paid) iOS and Android apps for mobile access. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Show HN: An encrypted, local, cross-platform journaling app

  This is Nice. However, how do one access their diary, when you stopped maintaining it? Is this targeted more at the technically inclined, high-profile people who need to keep secrets? Personally, I believe that for something like a diary/journal, it should be in a format easily readable by most tools (so a Plain-Text or a MarkDown at best), then it is in a container/folder. Now, encrypt that container/folder... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Time to Start De-Appling

  If you still want/need cloud storage, but don't want to roll your own (with the warts that brings), Cryptomator is an excellent tool for source encrypting your data before uploading them. It works transparently, and has clients for Mac/Windows as well as iOS/Android. It's also open source, and "free" (IIRC there's a one time fee for the mobile client). https://cryptomator.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Twake Drive – The open-source alternative to Google Drive

  - Syncthing (https://syncthing.net/) to keep the files synchronized between desktops and laptops computers - Webdav (https://github.com/hacdias/webdav) to access the files on the server via other applications - Cryptomator (https://cryptomator.org/) to crypt/decrypt sensible directories. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Over engineering my homelab so I don't pay cloud providers

  While I get the whole homelab thing is exiting and a great learning experience, it's simply not worth the time and effort for the majority of people. You will end up paying much more for your services, along with spending a ton of time maintaining it (and if you don't, you will probably find yourself on the end of a 0-day hack sometime). In Northern/Western Europe, where power costs around €0.3/kWh on average,... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• What is the cheapest VPS Hosting?

  I have an 11 GB VPS with Windows on it, and it’s running perfectly. I 100% recommend this hosting, because of it’s pricing and support. I give $8.25 a month for an 11 GB VPS. Which would cost up to $55 a month on popular hosting providers like, Linode, Vultr, and Digital Ocean. Source: about 4 years ago

• question for any linode users

  Anyone that hosts a server using the cloud provider linode.com Do you encounter any limits regarding the CPU speed? Source: about 4 years ago

• Linux OS

  One of my best recommendations is to spin up a linux server in the cloud, you can do it for free for a few months from linode.com for example. Setting up an online server for a game you like playing can also be a rewarding learning experience for networking and Linux in general. Source: about 4 years ago

• A2, Krystal, 20i, Brixly or Mechanicsweb. Best one for resellers?

  Then you can buy a VPS from linode.com, katapult.io, contabo.com or hetzner.cloud, I'd recommend a 4gb VPS, and in order to run, it has to be over 2gb. For the OS, choose AlmaLinux or a supported version of CentOS. Source: about 4 years ago

• An 'unlimited' web host has been deleting my files without any notice or warning..

  Use VPS, don't use shared web hosting when you generate content as it tends to use lots of resources like RAM, CPU %, and storage. I'd recommend hetzner.com, contabo.com, or linode.com. Source: about 4 years ago
