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.

Cool. I'm w/ Hetzner, and it seems they will unblock port 25 if you ask nicely and provide a good reason (and surely hosting your own email service is a good reason). They don't look at those requests until after your first month, and I've been with them for several months now from when I ditched Vultr (had been with them for years) due to their stupid UI-blocking EULA accept popup when they added forced abitration. Hetzner also has forced arbitration, but so far I haven't been forced to accept new terms in order to continue using services I've paid for, so I'm giving them a chance.
So yeah, I'll definitely try playing with it with one of my domains. I currently use two, and I can play around with a third that's connected to the domain I use for remote access to my self-hosted things.
And good luck! Hopefully you don't get screwed over again.
