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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I seriously can't believe how much progress he's made for the FOSS community. He actually might take a bite out of the big 3's profits with this

Quite a lot, actually.

Coding, document analysis, STT, home assistant, shopping assistant, gaming, journalling, image and video generation, OCR, language translation, recipe/meal / workout planning, study/flashcard generation, email drafting, adversarial review, search engine on steroids, hardware troubleshooter, companion for elder care, music curator and DJ ....

All of that without creepy ass cloud shit from Big AI.

I can go on, but "a lot" probably covers it.

EDIT: asked, answered and...down voted. Classic Lemmy anti-ai knee jerk. FWIW I work with AI in healthcare settings as well as code review for my own personal projects.

What I said are actual use cases, not a wishlist generated by Jippity. I can elaborate on any and all of them with actual real life experience.

Coding is okay, but the flagship free models usually crush whatever and to have decent memory you need hella VRAM Doc analysis is okay if they're small, Home assistant isn't bad but kinda overkill with an LLM when you can just set manual automations, Journalling, gaming, music, DJ'ing, elder care, imagine and video generation, are all relatively bad even on flagship models

Quick overview of searches is fine but I'll use a free flagship model for that, in depth research tends to not be great
