Selfhosted

40313 readers

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.

Make the most of your network. Get more play for your gamers. Download your games once and serve them out to many people at your LAN.

Had never seen this service before and randomly saw it in Unraid CA now. Thought I'd share this, as it seems like a very cool project, especially for those hosting LAN parties.

By default it's only for the the same account, but you can change it in the download settings to allow transfers to "Steam Friends" or "Anyone".

At a big enough LAN even just getting everyone to change that setting is probably harder than setting up a central cache. Don't underestimate the amount of people that listen to instructions, say sure and then just either not do it, or fail to do it correctly.
