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.

In fairness to Plex, I bought a Lifetime subscription during a Black Friday deal over a decade ago and it's still serving me well to this day.
I have jellyfin set up ready to go but Plex has the UX down at this point. I'll keep using it whilst my lifetime subscription remains valid.
God I hate their last UX change. It's like they specifically designed the roku client to hide your own content and favor theirs, used to be one click into my library and everything was there.
Same here, JF is on reserve but I'll be sad if I ever need to switch. Ever since they fixed downloads I have 0 major complaints. Plex just works, and it works very well for my and my family's needs. I am perfectly happy paying once for software that I use every single day.
