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.

This is unfortunately true. That much said, the tide may be slowly turning in our favor as more and more people discover non-corporate, free and open source social media. Some of my circle of tech friends have deleted all corporate social media and have stood up instances of Mastodon or Akkoma, Friendica, Pixelfed, and Lemmy or Kbin for family.
Eventually, people will be asking themselves why they bother using gmail.com, outlook.com, and yahho.com addresses when they can just do it themselves for friends and family. The internet was never meant to be controlled by a select few corporations. It was always intended to be decentralized to avoid a single point of failure so as to continue to mostly work in the case of war, catastrophe, or both.
