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.

Yeah, I see the tooling and it seems nice. I've always used the CLI tools and scripts I've built over the years to get this done, but having unified functions in one place is great.

I just don't understand the hosting part... Is there an advantage to having it hosted rather than in a local appimage or flatpak? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the premise....

Well the dev built it to run in a container image. You'd have to ask them why that was their choice instead of making an app that can be installed. The dev is on Lemmy, they've posted before. Shoot them a message.

Fair enough, thanks for taking the time.
