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.

  2. No spam posting.

  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.

What RSS feeds are you subscribed to? (self.selfhosted)

I've recently (finally) taken the leap into self-hosting my RSS reader, and I'm wondering what feeds everyone's subscribed to

I've currently got some basics like Github releases for software I use, the great selfh.st blog for self-hosted news, hackaday, some essentials like xkcd, and an attempt at following new music releases from artists I like, but I'm sure there are other great feeds out there that I should also be aware of

Hi! Here some feeds I follow, about Linux, tech, Windows, Apple & FOSS:

I saved the post because I've always been interested in aggregating a RSS feed, but I need ideas for what to subscribe to. Thanks for making the post

[–] JadedBlueEyes 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Here are some interesting feeds I follow, mostly tech-focused and quite Rust heavy:

Generated by opening an OPML export in firefox, running the following script and deleting a bunch of feeds:

 "- " + [...document.querySelectorAll("body > outline > outline")].map((f) => `[${f.getAttribute("text")}](${f.getAttribute("htmlUrl")}) \`${f.getAttribute("xmlUrl")}\``).join("\n- ")

Some feeds I follow

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Youtube channels. A simple timeline of uploads, only showing chanels I care about.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Well, managed by the great FreshRSS and read via the beautiful Read You android app (french here, so some sites won't ring a bell to most):

  • geek : a few on warhammer 40k and miniature painting, some tech related (like official android website, journaldugeek, korben, clubic, le café du geek, MariusHosting, selfh.st, and some others)
  • webcomics : badspace, getcomics, questionablecontent (well, used to, it doesn't work anymore), work chronicles, and of course xkcd
  • pro : stuff related to laws and compliance, but also stuff related to automation in MS3652 environment ('cause I'm lazy AF, and if I can automatize it, let's do it !)
  • hobbies : warhammer (again) and analog photography related stuff, but very few, I should expand that list.
[–] AnExerciseInFalling 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Heyy I've been looking around at different android apps and I think I've also settled on "Read You." Thank you for the list, I haven't heard of lots of them like MariusHosting and they look interesting

Which feeds do you watch for automation? I also like automating what I can lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

For automation : [](Let's POWER Automate), SPGuides and SPLighbulb moments.

Also, but not via RSS, but via youtube : Reza Dorrani, Sharepoint Maven, Pragmatic Works, Academy 365.

badspace has a RSS feed? I thought signing up for the newsletter was the only way

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I have to say I only put the url in freshrss, and magic happened. Fresh found https://www.badspacecomics.com/blog-feed.xml

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thanks a lot! Sometimes the internet is just wizards. Nobody can convince me otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Definitly, and people who write those soft are my magic heroes ! :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What analog photography feeds do you have? I'm currently only subscribed to Emulsive, which seems to have stopped being updated, and parts of 35mmc

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Only two so far. A followed a few french one, but they stopped or don't match with what I want : (argentique2.2, Clement Blin, AnalogYou.

Emulsive, more to keep tracks of past articles, and analog.cafe. On the site, some paywall, but via FreshRSS and ReadYou, I seem able to read the entire of the articles. I'll take 35mmc, but if you find more, I'll be interested :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Cool thank you, I haven't heard of analog.cafe before.

A question for the ages: why are there so many young cybersecurity furries?

Does the field attract furries, or does it create them?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I think it's attraction

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

The following for reading and listening:

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Mostly local activist groups, some software sites to see what's in updates, few political blogs.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Isn't this like saying "What phone numbers do you have in your address book?"
