Selfhosted

40349 readers

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.

I hope this post is not too off topic. I thought that it would be nice to see the address of all the small self-hosted instances of Lemmy (1~5 users).

I started with fbxl.net, the domain I've owned forever. It started with social.fbxl.net, then video.fbxl.net, then lotide.fbxl.net, and now lemmy.fbxl.net. I've also got a matrix home server and a nostr relay.

If there's a piece of advice I can give you, it's to plan to self host more than just one thing. Once you have one thing, you're going to find out it's kind of addictive having your own thing to go to and you might want to host other things. Subdomains are a nice way to give you that chance.
