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.

Slow and unreliable with sqlite, but rock solid and amazing with postgres.

I haven't noticed any major performance issues with sqlite. What tasks improved for you when you moved to postgres?

Page loading times, general stability. Everything, really.

I set it up with sqlite initially to test if it was for me, and was surprised how flaky it felt given how highly people spoke about it. I'm really glad I tried with postgres instead of just tearing it down. But my experience is highly anecdotal, of course.
