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.

Random thoughts here:
I am in control of the backup of my data.
I don't have to worry about an instance going off, or a radical change of policy.
I can choose whatever pseudonym I want.
I participate in the decentralization of the network, which feels good after the fiasco of monolithic Reddit.
(Edit) I am also in charge of its content and its user base.
This made me curious - does your own instance also have a copy of anything you post in communities hosted on other instances?
I would assume so as it makes sense technically, but you ought to double check
