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 (donโ€™t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

After thinking for about a year about it I decided to rename the project to ๐Ÿš€NetAlertX. This will help prevent confusion about which fork someone is using, and differentiate it from the now stale upstream project. With about 1800 or so commits over the stale project, I thought, this project deserved a new name. It will also remove the confusion about only supporting Raspberry Pi's ๐Ÿ˜ต

On top of the rename, I implemented โœจunlimited icons - just find an SVG you like and use it ๐Ÿ˜„.

The rename from PiAlert to NetAlertX should be pretty straightforward and existing setups should work fine, no manual migration steps should be necessary. Still, caution is recommended.

Check this https://github.com/jokob-sk/NetAlertX/issues/633 thread for edge-cases and the guide https://github.com/jokob-sk/NetAlertX/blob/main/docs/MIGRATION.md if you decide to change your docker-compose.

This is awesome. Will it work with VLANs or would I need an instance for each VLAN? I can do either, but allowing for VLANs would be awesome.

Oh, I you just made me very happy. New toy, which will make my wife somewhat unhappy ๐Ÿคฃ. Thanks so much.

And of course I'm going to RTFM, really appreciate the direct link. I just play with so much stuff already that I prefer to ask some key questions before I jump into a rabbit hole.
