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.

I'm sorry, but this is an absolute horror show of a sentence.
Why would I need a whole new instance for that? What benefit is there to locking an instance to a region rather than a listing to a region?
Its not a technical limitation. Its not even a functional limitation for the trade or sale of someone's stuff.
What happens when that server owner changes their region that they live?
Do you expect each person to stand up their own instance?
How do I, as a user, and lets assume I don't have the technical ability or the infrastructure necessary to support standing up my own instance, use flohmarkt in the United States?
What technical reason is there for this limitation?
What functional reason is there for this limitation?
It is a good design goal to foster decentralisation.
And the creator of an instance can and should hand over responsibility to a local coop or at least a different person still interested in the location the Flohmarkt instance caters to.
And please stop demeaning yourself as a user. Are you a drug addict or what?
Its a shitty design that fosters silos.
Stop being an asshole. I'm explaining a position and a use case, which is used for good software design.
This is a shit design. Many others have said the same and expressed their concern. You have decided to act like an asshole for no reason while I tried to explain why its a problematic design. You do that from a user perspective.
There is zero reason for you to suddenly behave like a rotten kid who was just told his toy wasn't made well. Grow the fuck up.
