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.

I'm extremely interested in the prospect of self-hosted cloud gaming. Has anyone had any success with any specific platforms, such as Sunshine + Moonlight? Any ins/outs to the necessary software or hardware?

For cloud gaming I have used Stadia, GeForce Now, Xbox Cloud Gaming, and now Boosteroid.

It has been great. No need to worry about installation and storage space. Simply click and launch the game.

You do need to have reliable internet, preferably wired LAN or a fast wifi network.

For self-hosted streaming I use Steam Link, Sunshine or Parsec. Mostly Sunshine these days because of the streaming quality.

I mostly play single player games and I don’t really notice any lag.
