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.

Wasn’t sure where to ask this but figured people here host their own rss platforms. I just started with miniflux. Between that and reeder it makes RSS nice and easy.

My issue is that until the 3rd party Reddit nonsense, i let Reddit monopolize my information gathering. To the point I don’t know where else to get info from. Like which websites I can trust that aren’t just bad forms of marketing. Forums and things like that. I don’t know any of them because I spent all my time with Reddit.

Anyone have ideas or suggestions of good rss feeds for people who are interested in tech and programming and gaming and whatnot

Edit: thanks for all the great suggestions. I’m building up a nice RSS stream.

Thanks! I didn’t even think of checking out GitHub’s RSS! I’ll also check out the other ones you and temp suggested.

You're going to have a pleasant surprise, then. :) There are RSS feeds for basically everything, on Github : a repository commits, an issue/pull request activities, a user activities, your social feed (the homepage), project releases, etc. Same for Gitlab. Gitlab even recently added a RSS feed for topics, allowing to get notifications when a project matching given topic is created (example: the feed for 3d printing projects). Too bad they don't have as much activity than Github.

Oh wow that is cool. I’ve already added a few GitHub projects to my feed. One of my GitHub projects I follow though don’t use GitHub to announce anything sadly. They only use discord.

I wish I could convert certain discord channels to an rss feed. My understanding is it might be possible with a discord bot but I haven’t tried yet.
