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.

I disagree with this almost on principle. GitHub was a mistake. We don't need these large, bloated, isolated forges that are just going to be acquired and converted into social networks. Forgejo> is the future. Any new forge not even trying to support federation and independent hosting out of the box is dead in the water to me. You wanna build a github style accessible platform above forgejo go right ahead, the thing github did best was make all of this accessible.
