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.

Could also run pihole or adguard on your network to just start blocking ads all across your devices as a starter step. Get an OpenWRT router to make it super easy, or just run a standalone pi as a DNS server.
While you should do this to block your TVs telemetry and other undesirable behavior, realize that YouTube native TV app ads can't be blocked at DNS level alone without also blocking the core functionality of YouTube, due to the way it serves the ads.
Eh, not quite accurate. YouTube was battling DNS ad blocking in browsers. Took them awhile to push to mobile apps to try and do the same, and I still largely never see any YT ads across any of my devices just by using AdGuard in my network. TVs and media players are even further behind in updates of official YT apps that do so. Hell, if your smart TV or whatever isn't getting regular updates, you may be set just by DNS blocking.
