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.

It always starts so innocently, doesn't it? A pi-hole here, a media server there, maybe a little cloud storage to get off the big tech grid. Next thing you know, your weekend project list is longer than your arm and your electricity bill is looking at you funny. But man, the control. What's the next 'totally essential' thing you're diving into? I'm debating a self-hosted recipe manager just to avoid subscription fees for something i barely use.
