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.

We have a lot of health records in the family, often just for monitoring health as we grow older. Is there a good system that allow storing and organising this info. Maybe also allowing notes, reminders?

Paper notebook for each person, really the simplest, unless you have continuous monitoring or something uploading data automatically. Otherwise, for stuff like weight and BP, the actual measurements are the main hassle and computers won't save you any time compared to that.

Added: for pills, timercap.com bottle caps are brilliant. They have an LCD display saying how it has been since the cap was last taken off the bottle. It eliminates the problem of forgetting whether you have already taken your pill.

Otherwise, generally, as always: https://biggaybunny.tumblr.com/post/166787080920/tech-enthusiasts-everything-in-my-house-is-wired
