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.

Counterpoint: if you system is configured such that the mere act of trying to send an email results in serious delays and regular bounces, you're doing email wrong. Even push notifications may require third party routing through Google, Apple, or similar to get to the core OS in some cases.
Yes, I recognize that hosting an SMTP server is difficult these days and can't always be done at home due to IP restrictions. But that doesn't mean you have to have an email server at home. I have a third party email on my domain and I can dispatch SMTP which arrives at expected non-delayed times even to Google and Microsoft accounts.
I honestly wish more software would simply speak to an SMTP server of choice rather than defaulting to just hitting the CLI mail send or attempting a direct SMTP connection.
