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.

browsers are not the only way to watch YouTube ... mpv is older than most of his machines ;)

but yeah - i get the point

nevertheless there is a lot you can do with aged hardware - there are lots of desktops/windowmanagers which will happily run as well

As someone who first started to load programs into his computer with a cassette tape recorder, I'm aware of that.

browsers are not the only way to watch YouTube

Between that and apps on a phone, nothing else comes even close in the percentage of usage for viewing a video on the internet.

but yeah - i get the point

Thanks. ]:D
