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.

I hope you didn't infer from my comment that we should stop individually supporting FOSS, that's not what I'm saying.
However, I will counter that I don't think you are current with the overwhelmingly massive imbalance of corporate vs personal use is currently in play on big Foss projects.
Ffmpeg is used by almost everyone with a video project, but not companies want to kick in any bucks:

We saw this back in 2015 as well with NTP, which almost everyone on the internet uses, yet the one guy who worked on it had to stop doing so temporarily in 2017 and get a job to support himself:

Not only do corps use FOSS at a higher rate by an order of magnitude than individual users, but they also profit from it.
Not at all. I support individual paying for foss projects and then corporations should be made to as well. Corporation will not have morals until there is social pressure, even so they just pretend to or regulated by government standards.
We are on the same page, if you read my other comments.
Ah, I see that now, thanks.
