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.

If you just want something simple that does the job, you can try a turnkey solution like YunoHost. There's several other ones out there. Some with containers, some with more or less pre-packaged software... If you want to learn more during the process, maybe don't and do it yourself because these things don't teach you a lot. There's some resources like the awesome-selfhosted list in the sidebar of this community. But I think for installing services you'd mainly look at the specific documentation of the specific service you're just about to tackle. And maybe read up on Docker containers etc to judge whether you want to do it that way.
