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.

I never really understood intuitive as a description for user interfaces. I remember back when opinion articles on Tech news websites would use that term to mean it "looks and functions exactly like Windows XP"

Idiomatic usage of ‘intuitive’ regarding interfaces breaks down into

  1. ‘familiar’, so, confusing intuition with knowledge, or

  2. ‘discoverable’, which is more accurate and describes things like icons and tooltips and menus, where the rules of usage become more or less apparent with exploration and logic.

Yep. What's considered intuitive UI changes depending on what you're used to.

It's why Google fought so hard to put Chromebooks in American classrooms.
