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.

What’s wrong with this?
I remember when "research" actually meant something. Now it just means "throw it into the black box and get some info that has a 50/50 chance of being completely made up "
For dipping your toes into a new topic I think it's perfectly fine. It helps to provide useful pointers for further "research" (in a sense that would meet your requirement) and also manages to provide mostly accurate overviews. But sure, to really dive into this, LLMs like ChatGPT and co. are just some low-level assistants at best and one should go through the material themselves.
It’s all become quite convoluted now with all the other shit out there but they do actually serve well as a research tool in a more intuitive way than a search engine can
You can ask CharGPT for sources. TBH it’s often a much better search engine than Google, although that’s not hard nowadays.
Perplexity does a good job as LLM-search-engine-combo.
