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 kind of miss the message board era of the internet. Those niche communities could be really useful.
I'm still using public trackers. Maybe after I get my network setup I'll invest some time into finding a good private tracker or two to join.
Private trackers are like the Matrix's "zion". When civilization collapses into a dystopian surveillance capitalism hellscape and the AIs and fascist governments take over the net, the last free humans will be hiding in private tracker communities, sharing freely and building a resistance. Will we have mechs with gatling guns? I don't know, all I can say is I hope so because it looks like we're going to need it.
You're using public trackers, so you're probably not in the habit of being a seeder. With private trackers, you HAVE to seed. Deleting a torrent from your client once it's finished is most certainly a habit you will have to break once you finally do get into some private trackers.
