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

Looks like an interesting project!
Could you please consider publishing it to Flathub?
It's on the list. Flatpak packaging is coming.
Not the developer, though that could be an option for sure. I'd highly recommend looking at the security holes for Flatpak, and it's got a ton of them. They're getting fixed, though I don't even have Flatpak installed on my machine.
Are there security issues specific to Flatpak? I would have thought it'd be more secure than Appimage, since it's sandboxed.
While it is sandboxed, a Flatpak can have this happen to it (from the time): https://flatkill.org/
How does this differ from every other distribution method, though? You can just as easily do something malicious with an Appimage or Debian/rpm package.
I've been hearing people suggest staying away from flatpaks, but I haven't heard the reasons why. I guess that's it?
