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.

I was working with a buddy on a "startup" that was more of a hobby than anything (and didn't go anywhere). The early prototypes were controlled by Arduino and Pis early on -- ease of software development was key as we experimented with and dialed in the hardware. The later prototypes used an ESP32 though, because we're aren't idiots.
I'm a hobbyist at best: it kills me that there are well paid "professional embedded software engineers" out there that can't work with actual embedded hardware. All I could think of was this article on electrical engineers that can't solder. The complete lack of real world, hands on experience with the hardware blows my mind.
