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.

This was common in budget laptops 10 years ago. I had a Asus laptop with the same resolution and I have seen others with this resolution as well

Here in Brazil, there are still a lot of laptops, monitors and tvs being sold with that resolution.

That's a whole 86x48 more than 1280x720!

😆nice

I just learned that this resolution resulted from 4:3 screens which got some wideness added to reach 16:9 from an awesome person in this comment thread 😊

I had to check the post not logged in, weirdly I only see your comment when I'm logged in, but yeah, I (almost) only ever ssh into it, so I never really noticed the resolution until you pointed it out

Some old netbook I guess, or unsupported hardware and a driver default. If all you need is ssh, the display resolution hardly matters.

Sure, just never saw this numbers for resolution, ever 😆

Most 720p TVs ("HD Ready") used to be that resolution since they re-used production lines from 1024x768 displays

Ahh, I see, they took the 4:3 Standard screen and let it grow to 16:9, that makes a lot of sense 😃

I am to young for knowing 4:3 resolutions 😆
