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 feel like they are way too expensive, otherwise they are nice.

I also kind of feel like domains shouldn't necessarily be private.

They are a little pricey, I'll give you that. Just out of curiosity why shouldn't domains be private?

I honestly have no good reason. It just feels right for it to be public information for some reason.

With that said, I would never register a personal domain without some kind of "whois" privacy. For obvious reasons.
