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.

Yes there are good iOS clients now. Snikket has an official one included and there is also https://monal-im.org/ which works well with other XMPP servers.
Oh that's good to hear. I'll most likely look into it again then, since client support was what was really holding me back. Do you have an XMPP server deployed? If so, what did you end up going with?
I run a relatively big XMPP server. For that Ejabberd is better. But in general I would recommend Snikket or Prosody (on which Snikket is based) for self-hosting. But not a huge difference overall.
Great to know. Thanks! I'm looking into them now.
