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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I can tell you something: I'm using some free apps on my Android phone and never notice ads at home, but when I'm on the mobile network or on a different wifi (at work or some public place) I start seeing them.
This is one of the reasons why I set up a Wireguard VPN connection to my home network, and an on-demand VPN connection on my phone that automatically turns on anytime I’m not on the home network. Even away from home I get the benefits of my Pi-hole+Unbound (running as recursive resolver) setup.
This is my setup too. I use WG-Tunnel to manage the VPN connection on my phone. It just monitors whenever you disconnect from your trusted WiFi network and automatically enables the VPN.
Only hiccup I've found is wireless Android Auto isn't a fan of a VPN.
