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.

It does look great! Looks like the perfect FOSS alternative for Cerberus Anti-Theft.

But is Cloudflare required to use FMD?

So I just use it by authorizing my wife a and kids to use fmd commands, which means I just tell my wife to send me a text with "fmd ring" and it will start ringing until I find and stop it.

Also, it will message my wife and kids if the phone gets below 5%
