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.

I got distracted from my work so I made some Continuwuity propaganda. Continuwuity is a lightweights Matrix chat server that you can self-host pretty easily. Give it a try :3
I thought this was an ad, then I remembered that I was on lemmy, and I got sad because this is an ad
Do they have MAS support yet? I kinda need my single signon :p
I don't understand why people need SSO.
Every place I've every worked that had SSO had an outage, and then nobody could log in to anything.
SSO moar leik single point of failure amirite?
Support for delegation to an external IDP (without MAS) is a work-in-progress
and what about QR code login? I think MAS is required for that
Well thanks for at least explaining what it is, but isn't Matrix already self hostable? Anyway what's wrong with IRC?
Matrix is a protocol, not a software. Continuwuity is one of the few servers for this protocol.
Love and use this!
Solid, fast, amazing experience.... A breeze to setup as well.... Quite another thing than Synapse.
I'm planning on trying to self-host it on OpenBSD ngl. I do wonder. Does continuwuity support multiple independent domains on a single instance like Ejabberd does?
We have a few BSD users! And no, it doesn't.
Ah well, good to know!
