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.

Think of it more like a push notification server than a messaging platform. You would need a service that sends push notifications to Gotify topics. I get the sense that under the covers it works a lot like MQTT where you have apps publishing messages to topics, and you have consumers (in my case, iGotify app on iOS) that pull those messages off the topic and present them to the user as push notifications.
Though... I think I need a better iOS client than iGotify. It's not actually giving me any push notifications so it's missing the whole point for me.
