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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I've often wondered about down votes as well. It's not the points, as I care nothing about that. However, if you're going to down vote something, have the balls to explain why. Maybe the down voter knows something that we all can learn from. It just seems like a common courtesy to do so.
It might just be an error. It's not too hard to hit one by mistake when scrolling on a touch screen device.
Could be. Not ruling that out. It seems to pile up tho on certain comments tho. Makes me wonder. I'm always down to be schooled. Shit son, ring the bell! Ahhh the internet.
This is why downvoting is fundamentally flawed. It could be "I don't like it" all the way up to "I know for a fact that's wrong," but nobody else will ever know the rationale.
I don't even see downvotes on my instance, and I never want to, because it just raises questions and confusion.
This. I think, waay back in the day, down voting was a way to filter bad information. Whenever I see a down vote on something I've said, I'm always left wondering if I gave erroneous information, was I out in the weeds smokin' crack? I'm always down for being educated.
