Hi!

DHH (co-founder of Basecamp) announced yesterday that they're making their group chat software open source and free for everyone to use. This is fantastic news, especially considering this piece of software previously required a $299 payment just to access the codebase (far too expensive, in my opinion).

It looks like we now have another excellent open source alternative to Slack and Microsoft Teams, thanks to this move. I really hope more companies will follow this trend soon.

What are your thoughts?

UPDATE: I've added advanced search filters directly on the listing, so you can now filter self-hosted tools by their alternative, category, tech stack used and licence they're released on πŸ”₯

I use NextJS for both front and backend. I'm open for any contributions if you're interested.

Added just that! Thank you for the suggestion.

We've talked with Ethan (owner of selfh.st) and shared some insights, but I'd definitely be open to collaboration. I don't think merging both sites is possible since we're focusing on different topics, but maybe we can figure something out.

Should be fixed now. DB was down due to high traffic.

Added categories now so you can filter directly in the list.

Added longer description and major alternative when you hover over the cards. Hope that'll make it easier to browse.

Sorry about that, had to enable attack mode temporarily to fight bots. Should be fine now.

When you hover over the card, it should show the most popular alternative now.

Thank you all for the comments and the feedback! I've implemented most of the things reported. You can now filter the self-hosted tools by category directly in the filters. Tool cards should now show more info about the product on hover (longer description and the most popular alternative).

If you see anything else to improve, let me know.

 

Hello!

I run a website dedicated to gathering the best open-source companies.

Recently, I analyzed the technologies each company uses. It was a challenging task, but I was able to identify nearly 250 different languages, frameworks, and development tools.

You can check out the list here: https://openalternative.co/stacks

Enjoy!

PS. removed the old post because forgot to add the link.

 

Hey, community :)

I run a website that showcases the best open-source companies. Recently, I've added a new feature that filters self-hosted tools and presents them in a searchable format. Although there are other options available, like Awesome-Selfhosted, I found it difficult to find what I needed there, so I decided to display the information in a more digestible format.

You can check out the list here: https://openalternative.co/self-hosted

Let me know if there’s anything else I should add to the list.

Thanks!
