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.

@lemmyvore @helenslunch
This is a show stopper for me on any of the big name 'encrypted' platforms, Proton, Tuta et al - impossible to import/export data. Moving from one silo'ed walled garden to another arguably worse one is anathema.

The thing that sucks the least for me is to pay to host my own email/contacts/calendar/storage via open source apps in a privacy friendly jurisdiction e.g. Hetzner

Going full DIY at home is not practical.

mailbox.org might be worth checking out, they're a German company trying to offer a comprehensive package - mail, calendar, some storage, some collaborative tools etc.
