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.

Nothing worse in Linux communities than gatekeeper answers like this.
It's fine to point out that something's challenging to someone who may be a novice, but to suggest it's above them? Eat it. At the very least, provide a resource and let them confirm for themselves.
This right here... This whole community is about learning to do things for yourself. It might be after been given resources to learn you do decide its too much for you but people should be given the chance to discover that themselves.
Shout out to hack the box.
If you're a noob or a veteran in any branch of IT looking for a good cybersecurity community/platform...
Most of us IT folk check the box of "knowledge peaks and valleys". They're the first community I've found that seems to actually respect the idea that someone might know way more about XSS and SQL injection in react apps than some other guy knows about binary exploits through packet disassembly, and that both of them are fucking experts and neither of them are lacking for not knowing what the other knows.
Cybersecurity communities too, there was one guy on [The Other Site] I saw awhile back who, whenever somebody asked a question about what they should do to secure X or Y or if Z security product was better than V because they just did general IT, would always default to something along the lines of "If you don't know, don't bother its above you and you should shell out $$$ to an actual firm otherwise you'll be shelling out $$$$ to another firm to clean up your mess"
Surprise surprise, when I googled his username (The fact I was even able to do this isnt a great sign for a "security professional" IMO lmao) he actually owned one of those "Databreach Triage" firms...yea...I'm sure there was no conflict of interest whatsoever lmaoo
