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.

I am playing TTRPG remotely. For this, I was using far.app, a js app, which permit to link Game Master and Players in order to share Character sheets, dice roles, some index cards (set up as a "scene").

Would you know an open-source software that I could self-host to basically have a board with multiple users at once.

Me personally, I really liked using maptool. https://www.rptools.net/toolbox/maptool/

Its got a bit of a learning curve and doesnt look great, but it gets the job done and is Foss.

Is it actually Foss? I assumed it was, but recently I was checking and couldn't find anything about licenses and stuff on the webpage.

Yup, they say its free and open source, and here is the link to their github:
