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.

Interesting, it's on AUR, I will try it.

So it doesn't need any port forwarding, and works on CGNAT? How the "NAT hole punching" works? Both clients connect to something on IPFS?

Afaik, for DHT with torrent, clients need to know at least one tracker, what is the "tracker" here? Something on IPFS? Who am I sending my IP addresses?

How much overhead does this add to speed? I love with Wireguard, that it's barely noticeable, really close to p2p speeds, OpenVPN was awful in this regard.

The PKGBUILD looks like it is just building via go. I'm not sure how you would configure it without Nix. I'll try building it.

Nix just calls the *.nix files, it's still go under the hood. PKGBUILD is similar to the flake.nix and package.nix files to me, but I have no experience with nix.
