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.

For what it's worth, I ended up choosing the obsidian sync service. While it goes against my "self host everything" mantra, I do also want to support software makers who make great products that respect peoples privacy. As such, I decided the $8/m investment was warranted.
My son in highschool uses Obsidian for all his school note taking, so he actually is able to use the same sync subscription.. As each vault has separate keys, there's no privacy issues between us...
My favourite part of this solution is it supports live update from multiple devices at once, so I have the vault open on phone, tablet, home laptop and work laptop simultaneously, and it just works...
Just thought it was worth sharing.
That's fair. It's just a lot of money right now.
Oh, I totally get it.... I've been in the same place many times (and I'm sure I will be again...)
I just have a policy of trying to support these things whenever I'm able to, otherwise I feel I'm not able to grumble when privacy respecting apps disappear from existence through lack of financial support...
12€ (I believe) is way too much to using it maybe once every week for private use.
If it was something like Bitwarden where it's around 1€ per year I would be totally up to paying it
