Selfhosted

53833 readers

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.

Sure. It wasn't a dig against OG Watchtower, it was just that it ceased to work correctly for me, and I sought other options. Whomever produces selfh.st does have a bit of sarcastic wit to his writing that I kind of like anyways. When speaking about GitHub, he threw out another zinger: 'Cue the intense backlash from users who hate paying for things'. So, I just think it is his writing style. I didn't get all hung up on it.
