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.

That WordPress article is a one-sided mess and they should really pull back from what they did. That has nothing to do with open source. They fucked over many of their users just to spite a single firm (which were in their right).

Now I don't want to defend a for profit company that doesn't contribute much to open source, but the public meltdown that the CEO of Automattic had was more than embarrassing.
