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.

Thank you for the tip! Any advice on buying a domain name? It is something I should have done decades ago but was never sure about.
I have basically no web developmetnt experience, but perhaps that will force me to keep it simple. Get that old web style we all miss.
I would love to have my own website for personal web services, and eventually something professional. I just don't want to overpay for something like Squarespace or whatever, and it seems dumb to not have full control.
I get all of mine through Hover.com. They also host email now but I’ve never used them for that (was with Fastmail before Hover launched that offering). There are many others of course!
Thanks for the tip! I will look into them.
