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.

Compared against the predominant incumbent social media platforms, the fediverse is very small.

I see a lot of posts that are bot reposts with zero engagement. Maybe I need to find a better instance.

start blocking users and communities you don't care about, or you can auto-ignore bot users in your profile; both options should help you out quickly.

My friends hate the need to do this. It does just take a second to click into community / instance and block it and you won't be bothered again but a lot of people can't be bothered with that one second even and would rather have something simpler unfortunately

I'm on Lemmy.ca, and the "all" view shows all kinds of various instances. Most commonly Lemmy.world but others too.

It's all federated. Unless your instance is defederated then you should have access to everything that Lemmy has to offer. You just need to find how to access it.
