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 (donβt 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.

What's wrong with kittygram? How's that any weirder then say Pringles? Like what the heck is a "Pringle" anyway? A potato tingle?
Coca-cola literally has the reference to Cocaine in it. In Spanish it's even weirder because Coca is actually the slang word for Cocaine, so it basically says "Cocaine Tail".
And Facebook??? A face that's a book???
There's plenty of extremely weird words you use or see daily. You've just been brainwashed to see them as normal because you've been marketed to about them since birth essentially.
If you heard of kittygram since you were 7, and saw kittygram ads constantly growing up, you wouldn't so much as blink about the name.
Edit: Windows has nothing to do with actual literal windows. I've never seen a window that looks like a freaking menu at least. iPhone is just lazy. Wow, just shortened internet phone. Not to mention Apple literally doesn't have anything to do with Apples. At least Gnu Imagine Manipulation Program actually does what it says. Spotify? What does it have to do with making Spots? It's about music, the heck. Don't even know what's up with Qobuz. Target? How does π― remotely even signify shopping? Amazon I remember being confused as a kid because I thought it was going to be a website about the rainforest. That's a terrible name.
And there's more. Google? Like Googly eyes? I doubt hardly anyone could ever tell you what a Googleplex was when it came out. It sounds Goofy. DuckDuckGo?
Like seriously, Kittygram is a problem but 2 ducks going isn't? Heck, what about when Google named Android versions over desserts? Jellybean, Eclair, Honeycomb??? Or Google's Play Store? That sounds dirty when you think about it. Like imagine you saw a shop in a strip mall and they weren't selling kid's toys called The Play Store. Then there's OpenAI which is closed, and for that matter how all the big AI logos look like fancy assholes. Meanwhile Europe has Mistral's LeChat. Literally a meme name.
DeviantArt? Well okay now with the AI porn it's living up to its name I guess.
You know, I'm gonna upvote you just based on the amount of brandnames you know π
It's all good points, I'm just gonna pass on this one.
I'm not throwing anything at the project or questioning anyone's parents.. just gonna walk on by...
