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.

Ah, yeah, guess I never realized it's a .NET program. Never understood why an open source dev would choose .NET, but what can you do.

Also despise Docker (especially the modern over-reliance on it), but that always gets me into trouble when I admit that publicly.

I am right there with you on the docker hate I get the idea but the docker system itself is a huge problem. The amount of people that do not realize it completely bypasses system firewalls is very sad and unfortunate and leaves a lot of people vulnerable.

I personally try to use lxc containers that I set up myself for containerizing services and install them natively within the container
