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.

I haven't actually started self-hosting anything yet, though at least I've bought a domain and I'm paying for an email service using that domain. It's nice and easy while still giving me some control my e-mail address and not being beholden to the likes of Google. I did so after my long time e-mail I had had all my life through my parents' internet provider was deleted with no warning.
I've also been looking into buying a NAS for use as a media server and backup target. I'll probably go with a Synology one for now, just to keep maintenance to a minimum. Maybe in the future I'll do something more advanced.
