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:

  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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Oh so it's a greed thing, but not quite a Nestlé level of evil thing, then. Meh.

You clearly haven’t tried using one of there services APIs.

I mean, Nestlé killed hundreds of thousands in impoverished countries. I think the Oracle service APIs can't be that bad, though I'm sure they would be if it made Larry Ellison $50.

Can you elaborate on Nestlé?
I know they're shit and avoid anything Nes* but am unaware of actual data.

They ware widely regarded as among the most villainous companies in history along with DeBeers and the East India Trading Company. Among their more infamous crimes against humanity include bribing the leaders of developing nations to sign over water rights to aquifers their people are using, which they take completely for bottling, destroying the local ecosystem and population. When the malnourished mothers can't produce milk to feed their babies, they say things like "use our baby formula instead then, which is much healthier than natural milk". If there's not already a Behind he Bastards on them, someone could make a whole podcast just on their villainy.

Only due to lack of capability, not desire.
