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.

Aww, man, I’m conflicted here. On one hand, I’ve enjoyed their work for years and they seem like good dudes who deserve to eat. On the other, they’re AI enthusiast crypto-bros and that’s just fucking exhausting. I deal with enough of that bullshit at work

Edit: rephrase for clarity

Selfhosted was their one podcast I still listened to was it wasn't all crypto and NixOS.

Didn't perceive the AI enthusiasm as too bad. At least they also covered self hosted LLMs and don't seem like they fell completely for that hype.

The crypto stuff is difficult to stomach though. More of an issue on their other podcasts though.

I use to follow them, until I got bored of long stretches of bitcoin and tailscale promotion.

Tailscale deserves it, bitcoin absolutely does not

It does, I use it. But feels disingenuous when an employee spends so much time time talking about it.
