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.

So I've discovered that after a while, it get a bit messy to keep track of all the passwords, API keys, which services are connected to which databases and such. Do you use anything to organise all the info?

I'm using Bitwarden for passwords that have a webui and Notesnook for other stuff, but it feels kinda clunky.

I keep a wiki using obsidian.md. The hard work is in working up the motivation to keep it updated. API keys and such I like to keep in Bitwarden/Vaultwarden

I like this approach because it doesn’t require someone to stand up a database to read it. I have this worry in my head that I’ll be gone for some reason and my family will need to figure things out. Them not having to deal with a database right from the beginning seems very worthwhile.

Secrets etc in 1Password, for reasons similar to above even though it doesn’t fit the self-hosted mindset.

It is, I use it to write anything down.

It's not FOSS sadly :/ I really thought it was.

It really is. I used notion for years and finally got fed up with the slowness and inability to use offline.. tried obsidian with git syncing and switched everything almost overnight. I managed to recreate everything I liked about notion plus some stuff I couldn't do with just a couple plugins
