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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I've really always wanted to write a memoir or chronology of sorts. Not that I'm going for Amazon's best seller list. More so, the process of it. There used to be this guy on Reddit who was autistic (I believe) or some other disability. He is enamored with the weather. He would do weather reports with a fair amount of accuracy, and at the time had garnered the attention of news outlets. He wrote a book about the weather, and published it on Amazon. It was inspiring. Since then, it's a thought that's been rattling around in my head.
