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 do some freelance on the side and it's getting kind of difficult to properly track my billable hours. Is there an invoice system that I can track them with, along with generating invoices?

Thanks!

I've used Invoice Ninja for awhile. Works great. Self hosted but not foss.

It is source available though. It uses the Elastic License 2.0 (ELv2) license.

It's better than nothing, surely better than proprietary software.

I agree. I have also used it for a couple of years.

I use kimai. It's gotten much more stable over the past couple years and there is a mobile app. (I think it's a couple bucks now, but works pretty well)

It runs in docker so it's pretty easy to set up.

I have one customer who is pretty nuts about bills and this is the only way to track and invoice all that nonsense.

I think there was a Nextcloud plugin that allowed doing that. If you run that anyways, worth a try.
