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 have 2 older iPhones. A 7 Plus and a 9. Idk what to do with them. Is it possible to self host on iPhones?

Edit. Not iPhone 9, iPhone 8.

The phones are probably still working. New battery and touchscreen and someone will be happy with it.

To the normal user it is e waste because it's an old apple phone. It doesn't matter how much you get for it. Just get rid of it so that someone can use it or strip it apart for its parts. And most importantly, to get it out of your sight.
