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.

Per the github page "With the API stabilized, we aim to have AliasVault undergo a thorough security audit this stage. We have already initiated conversations with renowned cyber security companies who have taken interest in taking this on."

I hope it doesn't say as I didn't bother to check - how do free projects get money for audits like this?

Good question. I don't see anything about current funding. They do mention in the road map having a premium cloud subscription to cover cloud hosting.

I'm a keepass user myself. Too many hosted programs turn to crap one way or another. Let alone the trust componet. I hope for the best with this software.

Excellent question, because financial transparency is becoming more and more of a factor in my shift to open software.

And I suspect that there are indeed a few not-so-good actors who are abusing FOSS for political or financial gain.
