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.

Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i'm wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren't mediaservers.

Actually Budget for finances, Nextcloud for everything office and organization, Home Assistant for home automation, paperless--ngx for storing and sorting documents, freshrss for news, ntfy.sh for notifications.

i dont understand ntfy.sh

you need an app to run to get messages? which you already do with home assistant and companion app or apprise. what is the usecase for ntfy?

@3dmvr @selfhosted I'd say DNS server is the most important self hosted server I have.

Whoogle, a meta-search that strips away all the nasty things from Google. Can't live without it tbh.
