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.

Does anybody know an open source self hosted application to create diagrams? Like draw.io or something like that (lemm.ee)

Unless I misunderstand your question, draw.io can be downloaded as a standalone Linux application and run locally.

Likewise, the Xfig package should he available in most Linux repos. It's old, but good enough for a quick sketch.

edit: aha. My mistake. My eyes slid over 'open source' in the title*, and even still I hadn't realized it was an Apache license.

They're looking for something open-source. Draw.io's readme says:

License

The source code authored by us in this repo is licensed under a modified Apache v2 license. This project is not an open source project as a result.

I haven't been through the license to see what its restrictions are, but there must be a reason they give this warning.

Of the changes made last week to the license, this one stands out:

  1. None of the Work may be used in any form as part, or whole, of an integration, plugin or app that integrates with Atlassian's Confluence or Jira products.

That is a weird carve-out, so I'd guess the license revision (and technically the reason it's no longer open source) somehow has to do with Atlassian or their plugin marketplace?

I guess that's how they make a lot of money, selling their own Confluence plugin.
