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.

Hello all,
I am attempting to self host piefed on a vps server running Debian 13 in docker with nginx proxy manager. I am at the step where I build it from source, and whenever I do it I get a ton of permission denied errors. I know the instructions said to chown 1000 the previous step, which I did but it still doesnt work. Thanks for the help.

Just to rule it out (wouldn't be the case on default debian):

Is SELinux enabled? sudo getenforce (if command missing or false, it's not your problem here)

You are not running with podman as compose backend? sudo systemctl status podman shouldn't show an active service unless you use it.
