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.

Are we talking about the same thing?
It used to be
It has never been on F-droid. I've been following the service since it started. It didn't even have a mobile app not that long ago.
It's possible I misremembered and got the apk from their website or github. Doesn't change anything though.
I just went back though my emails, I got a reply email from their CTO promising to look into it and they would get back to me, but they never did.
Much more user friendly
Json is awful for config
Crockford is a good and smart person but he really dropped the fucking ball on JSON.
Double-quotes-only and no comments kill the whole spec for me. Extremely opinionated and dumb. I fucking hate JSON.
My boss once sent me a machine generated config. He's terminally addicted to double-quotes (like, a fatal condition). I searched and there were 27k sequences of
