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:

  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.

Testing it out, doesn't seem to work with Connect though, needs to be through a browser.

This is incredibly cool. I’ve been looking for an alternative to Goodreads.

Yeah same, I transferred all my reads to Bookwyrm a while ago and it's pretty cool. The search function isn't as good as Goodreads', but openlibrary also helps.

I've been using it for a while now. Currently on the "main" instance, cross-posting reviews to my website.
