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.

I dont really understand, is it possible to block JUST the shorts on Youtube? Any idea where i can find more about that?

I dont want to leave youtube just yet, but occasionally the shorts are melting my brain.

Yes, Brave let's you do that.

While also supporting scams and homophobia

So, I support abusing women because I like The Shining and Stanley Kubrick was a loud jerk and total dick to Shelley Duvall during production?

If you want to pirate Brave Browser, I don't think anyone will mind.

Well he's dead, and IIRC didn't donate to anti-women organizations. J.K. Rowling is a better comparison.

This is such an idiotic take. Yes i get it, Brave do try to offer some bullshit features out of the box, but there's not many (if any) that don't. You are not supporting scams or homophobia by using Brave.

You can very easily and quickly lock down Brave to remove all their nonsense. This is just the same like you do with other browsers so all good.

Yeah, company is shady, but browser is still grand for now if you do your own lockdown of features.

If you wish a browser rec, please go with Mullvad.

I am indeed talking about your support of a scammer homophobic company, not their slightly modified Chromium browser.
