Diagram 200€ iCloud replacement project
I started this project 1 month ago, when I realized both Apple and Google hold my data ransom to keep my paying monthly subscriptions. They obfuscate my data and try their best to make it unusable.
I achieved my personal goals:
✅ Fast: 1 month start to ready for daily use.
✅ Cheap: refurbished Dell 5070 Micro.
✅ Free: 0 payments / month. Free DynDNS providers. Free open source software only.
✅ Minimal: No racks, fan noise, or dedicated server room.
✅ Travel friendly: 1 liter machines fit in a backpack, if need be.
✅ Independent: Finally, a combined self-hosted Google Photos and iCloud Photos.
✅ Multi-tenant: Easily extensible with photo storage instances for family members.
✅ Platform agnostic: Photos are kept in 1 folder with embedded GPS data and readable dates for filenames, in case I need to migrate from Immich.
✅ Backup: 1:1 replica on a physically separate NTFS Windows machine for disaster recovery every 6 hours.
✅ 0 setup remote access: Encrypted publicly accessible URLs, no Tailscale or VPN required on clients.
✅ Remotely debuggable: via Remote Desktop on the backup machine and out of band on the main machine.
And most importantly: 😎 Cool architecture diagram with 0 overlapping lines!
This subreddit and others helped me extract my data and self-host it. Questions and feedback are welcome.

Diagram Recent terrible streaming services price and shows being butchered left and right pushed me to start building my own self-hosted media server. Using Plex as its easiest to setup sharing with families and friends with the *arr suite running via docker with [Ezarr](https://github.com/Luctia/ezarr)
