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.

Posting this again, as for some reason it got posted as a reply…

I’m playing about. I am on IOS so I saved the web app on the home screen as well and I find myself using it to find new communities/ comment/ post. I like Memmy as I enjoy the look and feel, I just feel it’s lacking a bit of functionality (such as receiving notifications, or searching for communities), but it easier to block communities on it. Mlem is nice as well, but again lacking a bit functionality wise (does not have search, cannot see post history, cannot receive notifications). At the moment I am switching between them depending on my needs at the moment and I will decide on one depending on their development in the future. I don’t mind testing new stuff and I enjoy discovering updates as they are coming on each of them

Mlem does have search. Tap the middle of the top bar, where it says “Subscribed” or “All”. Then tap “Communities…”

I’m surprised people can’t discover this, considering it’s the same workflow as Apollo.

I tried it, put in the link to the community (one of the main Support ones) and nothing happened… tried with another, again nothing. I thought I was using the wrong link, went from the web app, searched for it, copied the link from the search results, went back to Mlemm, pasted it and again nothing…. :(
