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.
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Youlag is a FreshRSS extension that allows you to browse your YouTube and article RSS feeds through a modernized design that incorporates quality-of-life features.

It is designed for a distraction-free experience, for people who want to be intentional about their viewing habits.

Why?

Subscribe to creators via RSS without a Google account, stay free of algorithms, and access your subscriptions from any device. Youlag can also be used just for article reading.

Highlights v4.3.0

Video entries supports direct links and can now e.g. be opened in new tabs.
The floating miniplayer restores position and autoplays on its own when you navigate, so no more manually hitting play.
Mobile: Swipe left side of the screen to open/close the sidebar.
Hide description intro if it contain links; reduce chance of seeing sponsored content.

Other features

Block incoming YouTube shorts
Replace clickbait thumbnails/titles, via DeArrow
Whitelist specific categories to use the video mode layout, leave rest in article mode
Floating miniplayer that follows across pages; read articles while watching videos

This looks great, the whole setup. I have been wanting a way for my kid to have a more curated access to YouTube.

Supports Invidious

As I was reading down the post, that's what I was thinking. Would be great to pipe it through Invideous. I may have my next project.

I was actually contemplating if I should've omitted the mention of Invidious, seeing how it is a niche feature, but I guess it was the right call to keep it.
