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 (donβt cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

My favorite April Fool's joke was convincing my then-elementary age kids that they missed April Fool's Day. Somehow I managed to do this completely deadpan. Them coming home from school and immediately yelling "DAD YOU TRICKED US" was the icing on the cake. They're teenagers now and still talk about it. Good times.
Recently though, I've grown a distaste for AF jokes in general. I fell for two of them within 10 minutes of waking up. One was a youtube creator (miniminuteman's "Atlantis" episode" that he's actually been working on for months), and the other was a buddy of mine on a Discord we're in telling us that he blew his engine in his only vehicle.
To be fair though, in years past I would find a photo of a wrecked vehicle that matched one of mine, same year/make/model/color, and post it on social media captioned with something to the effect of "well that was short-lived" or "luckily it was just me" or whatever. The last time I did it was a few years ago, my wife (then girlfriend at the time) called me within 10 minutes of posting it, clearly panicked, and demanding to know if I was at the hospital π I should have looped her in, in hindsight. But I don't do it anymore anyway because 1) everyone caught on π and 2) fuck Facebook.
