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.

I self-host web apps I write myself? ¯\(ツ)/¯
I used to get the light prices on my phone widget via a public api. Some years ago they closed the api and started asking for full name and id in order to get api access. So I just made a scrapper that takes the numbers I want from their website and serves an API for the widget.
That's the only self made app I self host, but I'm quite proud of it.
I'm just starting to get into this myself. I made one so my family can easily check the status of my media server and send a movie, show, or music request to sonarr, radarr, and soularr(WIP) so they don't have to bug me when they want something and it also helps them to feel they have more agency in the process. It's pretty useful for me as well to be able to easily download things instead on the go instead of keeping a neverending list.
What kind of apps do you write?
I believe that functionality exists already if you are using Plex; via RSS sync.
