Selfhosted

55010 readers

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.

a while ago we shared our peer-to-peer project here multiple times under the name Plebbit, and honestly you guys were right The name wasn’t it.

We have decided to rebrand to Bitsocial, which feels way cleaner and more serious for what we are building.

5chan, Seedit clients and any other app we will make, will all be branded as Bitsocial apps

All info (intro, docs, roadmap, links) to be released on bitsocial.net later this month.

We also took your feedback seriously and we are now implementing proper sign-in options like:

Google GitHub (and more coming later)

So yeah thanks for the honest feedback

You made an annoucement before your website even works and linked it? Why? I dont understand why anyone would trust you with this level of incompetence?

we are still in the process of rebranding and the main info page (intro, docs, roadmap, links, etc.) will go live on bitsocial.net next week.

Why not post here when everything is all ready? Fragmenting your big marketing push is just going to hurt you.
