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:

  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.

Things I rely on are Nextcloud, Jellyfin, Wireguard, and Matrix-Synapse.

Why matrix-synapse? Just curious.

I host a non-federated instance for use within a large group for chat/voice/video. It's very convenient and private.

I've looked at Synapse before but disabling the federation and making the accounts private and subject to approval was too much work for me. It was designed to be interconnected with Matrix and it shows.

Are the conferencing features that great to be worth the headache?
