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.
Resources:
- selfh.st Newsletter and index of selfhosted software and apps

Nah, self-hosting is still a solution. And when I self-host, I don't even need an internet connection to access my files, movies, photos, security cameras, etc.
Yes, we can fix privacy laws, and put in a lot of faith that they will be followed or that our data won't be lost/sold. But I think everyone benefits when they are in control of their own data.
What we need are more accessible self-hosting options so that even computer n00bs can set up and cut ties with these mega corps.
