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.

I'm giving it a try after failing to set something simple for a book collection (mostly epub). Interested in knowing other people take on this tool.

Oh! I didn't know audiobookshelf could do ebooks. It doesn't look like it has an OPDS server which is my primary use case.

Audiobookshelf doesn’t support OPDS, and if that’s your use case, you’re probably better off with Kavita.

I’m okay with it because I can fire up the web browser on my pocketbook ereader and download the books. It’s clunky but it works well enough for me.

I haven’t implemented it yet, but audiobookshelf does support sending ebooks to devices via email. I just haven’t bothered to get a mail server up and running for it.
