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.

interesting facts about LVM:
You can make a volume snapshot of the system before a major change (for example, an update).
You can enable caching and use HDD together with SSD cache
You can build raid 0,1,5 directly on LVM (you still need modules from mdraid)
Even without a raid, you can expand the partition beyond one disk to another or migrate the partition from disk to disk (without even disabling it)
However, all this is done from the console and I do not know if there is a GUI.
