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.

I disagree. One big hunk of value of a place like this is being able to look back at old threads. How many times did people say they always put "Reddit" in front of their Google searches to get the information they were looking for? This could be the same.
That’s a good reason for an instance to put “lemmy” in its url too, I imagine. Search engines are already returning Lemmy results for things.
That’s unsustainable. Why do you think the mainstream platforms are selling out?
It's really not, at least for the text part. Text posts and comments take almost nothing and storage continues to get cheaper.
Mainstream platforms are selling out because they've always had others and shareholders who ultimately want to make money.
