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.

Hi there,

I would like to host my own Synapse server, but I am not sure where to start.

I would like to be able to use Nginx Proxy Manager as the reverse proxy and I've read that you can use example.eu for the username, while actually using a subdomain like matrix.example.eu?

Is there some good documentation out there and what would people recommend? I would like to run it in a container on Proxmox, but Docker could also be an option?

My personal experience with conduwuit is very positive.

Everything worked including sliding sync for Element X.

Bridges works fine. Threads too (limited to client support ofc), session verification works fine, element call never tried, you need to install a dedicated server anyway, but that's true also for synapse.
