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.

Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:

Fewer Letters More Letters
CF CloudFlare
DNS Domain Name Service/System
SSL Secure Sockets Layer, for transparent encryption
k8s Kubernetes container management package

4 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 6 acronyms.

I see this bot as useful for new people trying to get into the community. Don't downvote, but provide corrections to whom it may concern. This is a really cool resource.

Damn what a sweet boy. I meant bot, not boy, but I keep it.

Should label them as initialism, acronym, etc.
