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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I'm a mechanic.
This is both my reason and explanation lol.
I do my own work has been said to be taken a bit too literally in my case. I got ripped off by Geek Squad when I was 18 and said "wow, it's just like getting ripped off at a shitty mechanic shop" and ever since then it's been all hands-on.
I sat on that fence but being a mechanic gives me guaranteed work and I basically work-out every day. It's hard, but not brutal and the pay is decent. Surrounded by maga tho.
I'm also a mechanic, I self host for basically the same reasons and I just don't like the idea of big tech spying on me . Definitely a lot of MAGA, it's fucking annoying hahaha.
