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.

Wireguard uses public and private keys which are designed from the ground up to be used over plain text to establish the handshake so it isn't an issue. Same idea with ssh keys and ssl keys

Thanks. Wild that folks build SSH and HTTP around the same time without realising that HTTP could benefit from some of that same tech!

At the time, everything HTTP was supposed to be public.
