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.

But you can buy a 10-20€ zigbee stick and connect them directly to home assistant. No hue bridge or account required.

I have a Zigbee antenna. Will have to double check. I'm pretty sure the lights work with the antenna, but scenes are only possible if you've integrated them (generally via hue through something like Homekit).

Zigbee2mqtt can do scenes, no problem.

The only thing you miss is the hue app.
