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.

Does anyone know any important difference between voidauth and authentik? The latter seems to be a far more mature product, but the feature set looks similar.

Authentik supports more authentication types and I think it's more stable so you can use it in larger production servers. VoidAuth seems to be a lightweight alternative that only provides OIDC.

VoidAuth is an Authentik alternative that aims to be easier to use/setup (and look a bit nicer imo). It does provide OIDC and ProxyAuth (ForwardAuth), but Authentik is certainly a more mature/complex SSO provider.
