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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Love this... Will take a spin for my OpenAstra
Mind, seems to be vibecoded.
So?
It's 2026, being vibecoded is a self-explanatory problem.
Well, I have seen so many classic coders write shitty unmaintainable and insecure code that I don't think that NOT being vibe coded mean anything.
It's like the difference bewteen publicly-traded and privately-owned companies. Publicly-traded companies are guaranteed to enshittify due to fiduciary duty. Privately-owned companies could enshittify, but it's not guaranteed.
A human programmer could be shit but at least they're not guaranteed to be shit like the vibe coding AI
I like the analogy...
But at the end of the day better to have something that starts shitty but can be improved over time rather than nothing.
If it stays shitty, then it's just shit and won't go anywhere.
And how is it supposed to get less shit if it's vibe coded? The programmer didn't learn anything when making the initial build
Maybe other devs join and improve the code, or maybe the original del learns and improve, or maybe he was already good bit had zero time and after a while goes back to improve the vibe coded project....
I prefer to judge by the results rather than by the means used.
The era of not judging the means ended in, like, 1066 or smth. Vibe-coded stuff for example means burning down a couple of forests just so the AI can propose where to place a semicolon, long before a "result" is even visible.
Its a common practice in bars and coffee shops in italy to keep a faucet running all day to always have cold water at hand. You should stop drinking coffe than to save clean water....
To be fair, I should have stopped drinking coffee 10 years ago for my blood pressure.
