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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Basic auth is very secure.

Unlike custom implemented logins. So it's common to use basic auth in front of custom auth implementations. So even when the app has a login vuln, you're safe.

Yes that ticket is one of many.

Try searching the repo. Make sure to backspace out the prefix that ignores closed tickets.

That's exactly how I searched. If you want security, it's probably best to follow the Unix philosophy of do one thing and do it well. In other words, don't trust someone building a media server to handle auth and instead use the OIDC or LDAP plugins.
