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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Thanks for your work!
That being said they will hate it. If any ai Ia involved they will dismiss not only it but you and it's a really irritating habit that is starting to emerge.

I can't speak for everyone with my comment here. I really, really hate the side effects of the AI bubble. Where they force it into every fucking element of life. And honestly, I hate even that it's being called AI. I hate that it's made traditional algorithmic services worse like Google Now for example. And I hate the lack of privacy it's brought.
That said, I have no problems with someone using it to complete a project with it. I think it could potentially raise a potential device security concern in a case like this. And probably wouldn't partake in the app because of that. But I use my own self-hosted LLMs all the time. It helps me format things, saves me time with searching and researching when I want an answer, not knowledge.
There are many rational reasons to dislike and avoid "AI". As well, there's many irrational people. And there are some good uses for the technology.
That’s ok. I’m very much upfront about it. I’m not selling and making money, nor will I ever even ask for donations. I use AI for building things only for myself and literally have never shared with anyone before because I know some folks just don’t like it. But this one was too good not to share. It’s out there, and those who hate AI aren’t forced to use it. Is that fair?
It's perfectly understandable. It used to be that a project that had the appearance of a significant amount of work and polish put into it could be reasonably trusted. With the rise of LLMs, that assumption has gone completely out the window as people can churn out appealing looking slop in record time. In addition, LLMs are dominated by the most transparently evil tech companies in existence, and the fully open models aren't yet good enough, and are still built on the backs of the absurd amount of energy usage used to train the models.
That all being said, I don't think the OP is being malicious and I appreciate the disclosure but I'd give this project a year of maintenance before I would reasonably trust it.
