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.

How long has PeerTube been out? I was looking at some of the videos and most are a few years old, but mostly skewed towards Peertube-related content or animation (Blender).

Didn't some big Youtube creators put their stuff on the PT platform, or am I thinking of something else?

I really need to put some stuff on pier tube, I will never upload to Youtube again due to their Draconian policies, and censorship requirements that are now even more strict than cable TV. But I have to support the alternative if I want to catch on

If i remember correctly, big creators went with odyssey.

odyssey

Maybe that's what I'm thinking of! Yeah, there seems to be far more content that appeals to regular folks there.

It's a shame that Peertube hasn't been as successful.

Neither are really that successful tbh. Even if video self-hosting wasn't problematic due to videos requiring a huge amount of space and therefore very expensive, many people can't deal with having no recommendation system.
