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.

What about blog spam though? Surely this would relinquish controls like moderation for your site?

OP here: I haven't tested how exactly this would work but I think with some tweak to the scraping script I think I could have it hide muted comments pretty easily. From there moderation would also fall back to how things work on Mastodon- if someone is posting abusive comments I can report the post and have the instance admins take whatever action necessary against the infringer.
