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.

La Suite numérique is a open source WIP office suite developped by french and german governments to replace proprietary office suite. Theyre self-hosteable but i found the official install instructions unclear to follow, and they have only instructions to install one app at a time. So i've used helmfile and did a one-command install myself.

Have fun

Thank you for posting this, your timing is impeccable. My work wants to go down the 360 road…

Here's an alternative: https://www.opendesk.eu/en No guarantees though. But it looks nice.

I'm not affiliated with opendesk in any of way

I’ve also been looking at this as an alternative! I need to make a proposal for my boss with our objectives and how the different options compare.

She knows, it’s what I use every day. The issue is we need a complete system now that we’ve grown from basically one and a half people to 5-6 all in different locations and use different OS’s. She’s very much supportive of open source but none of us are sysadmins…. I struggle enough with my home server, I’m not risking my teams work. We might be able to make this plus a few other things work though. Also for some of our contracts and funding the govt has insisted on windows.
