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.

Hey everyone. For a variety of reasons I’ve ended up with a paperless-ngx install that has not been upgraded for a while. It’s currently on 1.17.1, and I’ve been researching to figure out the best way to get back up to current. I’m worried about major changes that have happened over time and what the best way to go about this is, but I’ve not had good luck finding something that gives me the confidence to go about it. Hoping someone here has some guidance. Cheers!

Having the ability to shut down the main instance of an app and run a secondary instance from backups without much hassle is the best feeling ever, I recently updated from Nextcloud v26 to v31, and having the ability to just go back to a working version if anything was wrong saved me from so much stress.
