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 if everyone else is down too, you don't look so bad 🧠

No one ever got fired for buying IBM.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. The state government of Queensland, Australia just lifted a 12 year ban on IBM getting government contracts after a colossal fuck up.

Such a monstrous clusterfuck, and you'll be hard pressed to find anyone having been sacked, let alone facing actual charges over the whole debacle.

If anything, I'd say that's the single best case for buying IBM - if you're incompetent and/or corrupt, just go with them and even if shit hits the fan, you'll be OK.
