   Project mention: Self-Hosting like it's 2025 | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-01

   I was using straight filesystem backups for a while, but I knew they could be inconsistent. Since then, I've setup https://github.com/prodrigestivill/docker-postgres-backup-lo..., which regularly dumps a snapshot to the filesystem, which regular filesystem backups can consume. The README has restore examples, too

   I haven't needed to tune selfhosted databases. They do fine for low load on cheap hardware from 10 years ago.
