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 have been using beeper for a while now and its amazing, signal, teleagram, whatsapp and others all in a single app. Both mobile and desktop.
Also, you could self host all the bits if you want
Yeah, I agree, Beeper is pretty great for bringing everything into one place. Makes handling multiple apps a lot smoother.
But I still feel it’s missing that AI layer like auto summaries, extracting tasks, or helping manage a proper to-do list from chats. That’s the part I keep feeling is missing.
I think beeper plus has a bunch of integrations, I wouldn't be surprised if that included LLMs
Yeah, I might be wrong here, but as far as I know Beeper Plus doesn’t really have proper LLM features built in. It has things like reminders and transcription, but nothing like chat summaries or task extraction from what I’ve seen
Also, I’m from a non coding background, so I’m mostly looking for something that works out of the box without needing too much setup.
But if you know any simple way to plug LLM into Beeper without getting too technical, would love to hear about it.
Sir, this is a c/selfhosted.
Building systems to solve problems is the hobby. You understand the motivation, you have a problem and there are not any easy solutions. At this level it's a lot like working with Legos, there's a bunch of software that you can snap together to get result that you're looking for, though you will sometimes need some scripts to glue it all together.
n8n is useful for creating arbitrary AI workflows. Designing a workflow is mostly graphical though a bit of simple scripting could be useful, depending on your requirements. It looks like it has a Matrix node already: https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/n8n-nodes-base.matrix/
Typically a coding LLM can cover your bases on this kind of simple scripting, even if you don't personally know how to code (though, as with all LLM code output, test it on dummy data before you plug it into production).
