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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

For me this begs the question, why does this question always come up in selfhosted communities? ;)
For me I like self-hosted apps because I switch between desktop and laptop, and some tools are nice to have on a phone too. This way I pull it in-house, and can use it everywhere. Besides that, there are two other laptops in the house and if I am using those I have the same tools available as well. It its something I need to help the kids with, and they need to use it more often they too can use it regardless of device. Plus its one less thing to install when setting up a new device.
I didn't realize this comes up a lot 😅. I'll restrain myself next time!
