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.

Your LAN router/switch will see the credentials unencrypted. An untrusted device on your network could perform ARP spoofing, pretend to be
192.168.something.something, and intercept the credentials. Do you trust all devices on your network?It's better practice (and simple enough) to setup HTTPS with self-signed certificates and have the browsers manually accept the cert on first connection.
I do trust the devices on my network but I guess I’ll probably look into how to setup HTTPS.
IMHO, HTTPS is not necessary in a small home network.
