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.

Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn't be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

Im very curious about what was the actual violation

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 year ago (15 children)

It's about the server access sellers, but to block a whole major VPS instead of accounts that commit the violation is kinda absurd.

It looks like another step towards further restricting what users can do with their servers, local or virtual.

Yeah I got sick of feeling like it wasn't my plex server even though I have plex lifetime pass. Have stopped using it in favour of jellyfin

You know it's kind of funny and damn near every piece of surprise him software is getting into controversies like this but you've never heard of a free and open source software ever having these problems

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

No they just have the problem of someone wanting to ad something and then forking it. And then that fork getting unmaintained. Or the main project loosing steam and dropping off also. Seems to be happing to jellyfin, they are stuck at just good enough.
