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.

Learn Podman since Docker has some licensing restrictions in some cases.

I think the restrictions are just for publishing containers on Docker Hub. If you aren't doing that, you aren't impacted.

It is less user friendly but theoretically more powerful and secure

The learning curve can be steep but if you have ever worked with config files it isn't bad.

The worst part about quadlets, IMO, is that they don't use the same key words as podman run does. So turning a working podman container into a quadlet can be challenging.
