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.

No, it isn't.
EDIT: I quickly want to add that Jellyfin is still great software. Just please don't expose it to the public web, use a VPN (Wireguard, Tailscale, Nebula, ...) instead.
Some of these are bonkers. The argument not to fix them because of backwards compatibility is even wilder. Which normal client would need the ability to get data for any other account that it hasn't the Auth token for.
Just make a different API prefix that's secure and subject to change, and once the official clients are updated, deprecate the insecure API (off by default).
That way you preserve backwards compatibility without forcing everyone to be insecure.
Wtf. Thank you
Oh boy. Nope. My friends gonna have to fiddle with a VPN, forget exposing JF to the outside...
wireguard honestly takes like 30 seconds to do once you learn how to use it.
I wouldn't say "great" it's ok software. Not even due to all of those security things which is a nightmare too. They do things like break the search speed months ago and not have any idea why, it's so insanely slow and on top of that it somehow lags the entire client when searching too, not just the server which is the only thing doing the query. Lots of issues just with that.
