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.

This shit is so annoying and I'm done explaining why. I gave a detailed account of my situation and what I'm asking for but you want to pick apart the title of my post. Go away.
I didn't read the other comments, only the main post in which I do not see what you define as "detailed account of my situation". You said that you have an issue with some software (you did not even bother to specify which) and that you want people to hop on Jitsi to duke it out with you. Had it been me, I would've posted logs, posted what I'm trying to achieve and why I'm unable to do it so far or where I would appreciate additional explanation. You want people to help you but you do not make it any easy for them to do.
But that's okay, stay arrogant and we'll see how far it gets you.
It wasn't in any other comments. It was in the original post.
Actually I did.
Logs of...what, exactly?
I did.
Did that also.
Maybe try reading more carefully before calling someone out for some bullshit.
You didn't. You very specifically asked for someone to commit to helping you personally with nonspecific issues rather than asking for help from a general group for a specific issue (which would have been more likely to get help).
Maybe, but what youre trying to achieve isn't getting a helpful answer for a specific question. You're trying to get someone to commit to helping you for an unspecified amount of time with an unspecified amount of problems. CriticalMass is telling you that is a bad way of obtaining help for a problem anywhere except in school and a job classroom. This is neither of those.
No, he read your post just fine. You just don't like the answers you're getting. Asking for help with a specific thing is exactly what these forums are for. Asking for help getting started is even okay. We love sharing a good tutorial for getting a new user started with a specific software.
You aren't doing any of those things. You're asking for someone to spend hours of their time, in a call with you, to walk you through a process that has hundreds of online tutorials already out there. You're also getting mad when people tell you that what you're after is not what this discussion forum is for.

I don't know what to tell you. It's in the OP. Literally everything you need to know is in the OP.
Yes, that's correct. Because I don't have a specific issue.
I disagree. Seems like a great way to get help to me.
And I clearly explained why those tutorials are not helpful. Wanna take a guess where? It's in the OP.
Because they're not the "answers" I asked for.
I'm getting agitated because people are being dicks just for asking a question. Who made you the arbiter of the intention of this forum?
If you don't want to help, just shut the fuck up, and move the fuck on. Not that hard.
