It looks like it's hosted on ghost.org, so it's not self-hosted in the first place.
At least you can still self host Ghost websites. My personal website is a ghost site, running in docker on my home lab.
I've been looking a platform for personal blog, portfolio, and what not that's kind of fun to play with without having to build the whole thing myself.
What's your opinion of this project?
How does this compare to https://awesome-selfhosted.net/ ?

Awesome selfhosted can not show you alternatives to a specific app. You always need to know what you are looking for. It is a static list
Selfhst is better with filtering and shows activity status of the projects. It is not an endless list
Quick feedback: your css transitions are way too long, opening the hamburger menu should not make me feel like I'm waiting for it to open.
Also you've gone for the card layout on the app list, however cards create the expectation that they are actionable yet clicking them does nothing. At least make the app names clickable.
Not to detract from your suggestions, but the website portion of the card is clickable. Took me a minute to figure that out.
It's not OP's website. Looks like there's a contact form on the site though.
Ah, fooled by the title yet again!
Oh, nice. I highly recommend the applications listed under the *arr tag. 🏴☠️
I can't believe I didn't realize the double rr after sonar and radar is mimicking pirates.
Oh. My. God.
I've been using it for years and never got that either 😮
There are a lot of stuff on that list that I don't understand how it's "self hosted"
Hugo for example. It is just an application/framework to generate static websites. I guess you can self host the websites, but....
It's like saying notepad.exe is self hosted.
This was just an example, but I saw several such cases.
That example makes sense to me, because it's an alternative to something like hosting a blog on some third party site: generate it statically and host the result somewhere.
But... Hugo is not a self hosting solution. Hugo just makes html files, it doesn't host anything.
Very cool and inspiring list. Bookmarked it 👍
But some applications are just desktop tools like Notesnook (can not find a server version to host) or are android apps like Aegis. It is not a list of only self-hosted apps.
Duplicati needs to get thrown out, it is beta for years and will not work if database gets corrupt (and it will get corrupt), the latest version is from May 2023 (still beta like any other version in the last years 😄)
thanks for this! I've always wanted to get started on my own self hosting solution
Great I had in my mind why there is no such website, and here it is. Good job! . For AI i would add Librechat . For note-taking I would add SilverBullet
I need a truly open source Cosmos Server replacement that can manage KVM, Docker containers, networks and storage. So far my only option is to use Proxmox and run Docker in a VM. Dockge lacks lots of features in comparison to Cosmos Server.
I haven't found that category nor Cosmos Server in slfhst apps. Any ideas?
This is awesome, I look forward to the weekly updates and have found lots of great tools from that. Keep up the awesome work, it is very much appreciated!
You should join forces with Terminal Trove ❤️💪
Just spent way too long scrolling through a bunch of em. Nice collection and nice site
Thank you for this. This is really helpful.
Saved, thanks chief!
