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.

Matrix is good, though I've been reconsidering it ever since I read this: https://telegra.ph/why-not-matrix-08-07
Also I've considered it less than perfect since they added encryption and managed to make it a hell to set up. If you can't get people to understand Mastodon because "yOu hAvE To cHoOsE A SeRvEr" how the hell are you going to get them to set up a Matrix account when it involves downloading files and other crap that you need to keep with you when setting up all your clients.
Revolt looks nice but until it's possible to use one account (and browser tab) to access multiple servers (in the computing sense, not the Discord sense), it's not going to be ideal as a Discord replacement.
