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.

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

Remember that if you get an idea, fuck around, find out, and write down what you’ve learned: you’ve literally just done science. Well, with computers, so it’d be computer science, but you get my point.

Honestly it’s never been easier to start doing things, and doing things is very fun. Good advice!

Also, how is the author using 1password for credentials on server? They have service accounts now, but is there a better way than just always providing a credential when asked?
