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.

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

I hate products with generic names. It makes it utterly impossible to search for.

Even if this OP post might explain it, it is still useless when taken out of context like in the esteemed comment above this one.

/rant, sorry, thank you.

LOL. Back in the day I saw a band open for somebody and the band name was 'Bob.' Even in the early aughts searching for 'Bob' was a pointless activity. They eventually changed the name to Super Bob which is just as stupid but at least searchable.

On a slightly related note, if you ever want a blast of the past, check out the ASCII art section of chris.com

Its a CRM, i agree with the gripes about the name but tbf I'm kinda surprised to see it on here? The GitHub repo seems pretty dead
