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.

For example, something that is too complex for your comfort level, a security concern, or maybe your hardware can’t keep up with the service’s needs?

@Tinnitus@lemmy.world I would say in retrospective, email, but it is too late now.

While I do have self hosted backups, I also have offsite, paid copies as well, not sure if that can be considered "self hosting" though.

I did email for about a year. Sucked shit so I cut my losses and closed the thing down.

Honestly I've got like 7 different addresses spread across 3 different providers. Email isn't important enough for me to worry too much about privacy and control. It's mostly just a place to collect spam for me these days.
