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.

Not yet. I ran Calibre + Calibre Web for a while before I found booklore, and the key thing I wanted from my setup was for things to work. I was experimenting with Booklore as a "new direction," and spent a significant amount of time troubleshooting and fixing various broken things from crashes of the ingestion job due to long file names, failure of metadata being written, OPDS problems, etc. I've been reading some web novels (2000+ chapters) for a while, so I didn't check in with the state of Booklore until recently, and now that I'm coming to the end of my most recent long story, I was going to pick back up in my TBR.
Honestly, I like self-hosting and experimenting, but I do recognize that "bleeding edge" isn't always compatible with having a relaxing experience. In this case, I want to go back to "easy," rather than "clever," or "new."
