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.

Probably to broadcast announcements.

Maybe... If they wanted to create an announcement effect, they could have simply stuck to their website or Mastodon etc... Posting on Twitter (!!!) the fact that they're reacting so harshly to the Reddit case...for me it doesn't make sense...

Dude, they want people to know, so they go to where people is. This is not field of dreams, if you build it no one will come unless you tell them where to find it. Try to relax a little, they do have a Mastodon and even have a Matrix instance bridged to Discord. They engage on Lemmy as well. Just, breathe deeply and put the toxicity away.

I'm relaxed, thank you for your advice, no toxicity here, just a reflection on using closed networks to promote free software... It doesn't change the fact that I really love Jellyfin and will never switch back to Plex or anything else...
