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.

If I like having a web UI means you can do without it, git doesn't require anything fancy. I just have my git repos on my server and push/pull from my workstations over SSH. It doesn't require anything but git & SSH on the server. You can even collaborate with others by giving them a locked down account that can't do anything other then interact with the git repo.

This approach certainly isn't for everyone. The web UI can be super handy, but if you just want your own self-hosted git server, keep it simple.
