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.

  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.

I just set it up today. The docker setup was pretty easy and I got the telegram and WhatsApp bridge running so I have all my messages in one place. Signal bridge is next.

Is anyone else doing this?

I used to do it, but not anymore as it was kind of clunky in my case. But I used dendrite as the matrix server rather than Synapse, so that's most likely the reason.

I ended up moving the database on a separate host rather than using SQLite, and it added way too much latency to the whole system. Storage was also a big issue in my case, as all media received by the bridges are stored locally, and boy does it grow fast in my case haha.

When dendrite reaches a more mature state, I'll 100% do it again though !

I'll have to look out for the media storage issue. Do you know of any way to clean it up periodically?
