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:

  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'm very new to self host, so apologies if I say things wrong.

Anyway, I'm looking for comment systems that I can deploy to fly.io (or similar systems but not Heroku) for my static pages (Jekyll) that comes with Codeberg/Sourcehut pages. I found staticman but it assumes Github/Gitlab.

Thanks!

I've heard that it's not very privacy respecting, is it right?

I am not sure what could be the problem? People will comment if they want.

The biggest advantage of a static site is that it doesn't need to have that "cookie bar" bs that the eu is forcing everyone down the throat. Disqus nullifies this point

It's bad because it's ruining the web. I hate it so much, it's killing the aesthetics of any website

And anyway I don't trust the site owner to actually do something if I choose "reject", I just use my browser option to reject the cookies and so on

@Moonrise2473 They are required by law to honour it. GDPR is a good thing. It should be enacted worldwide.

i agree that the GDPR is a good thing, it's just the cookie bar concept is aesthetically unpleasant
