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.

Self hosted
Cloud provided media storage
You want to talk about it?
It could be their own cloud. I refer to my VPSes as "the cloud" even though that's still self-hosting. My "cloud storage" would just be a 10TB storage VPS I've got.
No one else uses the term "cloud" like that.
That part of this comic really stuck out like a sore thumb. I can't tell if it's an oversight, a comment about the challenges of self-hosting, or subtle mockery of self-hosting hypocrisy.
XKCD is amazing.
Randall Monroe has provided me with weekly nibbles of entertainment for nearly 2 decades. But this was inspired by his style, not created by him.
I realize that now. Well done!
I also did not create this.
Next you’re gonna tell us you don’t even selfhost

Do you remember what the original was?
This is original work. The source is in the post.
For a generous definition of "original".
Edit: very generous, since it's just new text on the second panel in https://xkcd.com/1269/
I think it's https://xkcd.com/1425/
Funny, now it's easy to check for birds.
If by "easy" you mean someone else already spent 5 years and a nice chunk of cash training a model for it, which you get to use. And if you accept that it will not be accurate across all possible species and environments, only very specific subsets.
You're right, but you could say the same about the National Park GIS lookup.
I’m in this picture and it’s making me feel uncomfortable
Most self hosting isn't even needed but it sure as hell is satisfying
