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.

I want to have something similar to a google's nest hub to display different type of information, like weather, bus times, my own services information, photo gallery, etc.

It's not a problem if I have to manually write plugins for custom integrations.
It'll be better if it's meant to be shown in a web browser.

I remember there were some related to a screen for a digital mirror, or a kiosk screen, but I can't find a good one to selfhost and extends to my needs.

The ones I've found are focused on showing stats of deployed services and quick links to them.

Uhm... Home Assistant? It has many integrations for random information, and if you can add your own, even better

Homarr should fit the bill I reckon :)

I use smashing. It isn’t super active but there are still a lot of extensions for it and it is super configurable, especially if you know a little ruby and coffees script. I’ve written some of my own for tracking my city’s bus.
