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.

This seems interesting, and I might try it.

But... I'm kind of sick of web applicatioms. Why does everything need to be a web application or a "not" web app using electron. (In this case I see the use case and reason, but in general)

Generally, user interfaces are hard work. If you just want to code, then having a web app means you're already 50% done.

Actually should be 90% done, but each browser has differences which means more coding... I'm looking at you, Internet Explorer

mobiles and desktops are very diffrerent and need different user incerfaces. So you are not savin, much work. In fact trying to handle both in on may be worse because of all the special cases. Be glad you don't have to support teletypes, they demand different user interfaces.
