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:

  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.

Places without a property tax:

Lichtenstein, Monaco, Cook Islands, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands.


If you want specifically "free land":

Not a lot of people want to live there.

You can go to the bumfuck north in russia and nobody will come check whether you've built a house in the woods or not. In general, extremely rural places with weak law enforcement will work, albeit being technically illegal.

There are tribal lands in africa (and probably other tribal areas in latin america) that will accept you and you can build your own hut in their village. There are a couple of historic records of people doing that, even in modern times.
