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:
-
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.

Wordpress has become an all-purpose CMS known security vulnerabilities via unsafe plugins.
Ghost has APIs instead of plugins for nearly everything, so it eliminated a lot of security and maintenance headache that way.
Ghost focuses on just a few features centered around independent content creators: blogging, email newsletters and subscriptions.
So features for sending bulk emails and accepting payments are built in, but you won’t find native support for other things like podcasts or recipe markup.
Ghost meets my need, and I love not dealing with 30 plugins at risk of being exploited if I don’t upgrade them promptly.
