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.

Well it's just generally buggy firstly. Glitchy UI for me especially for hours after I started scanning my media library.

Also it has no built-in system for connecting from somewhere outside your home. You have to manage that yourself.

Then there's the fact that it's got lots of security issues.

What do you mean with glitching UI ? Is it more than just not responding while scanning ?

I left the scan running for an hour or so, came back and it showed, maybe all, of my shows and seasons. However, on certain views, it would not list episodes that definitely exist. The page looked kind of broken. I thought "okay I'll give it more time". An hour or two later, same deal. Cleared browser cache multiple times. Nothing worked. Came back the next day and it was "fixed". But that experience felt pretty janky.
