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.

Greetings everyone! Daniel here, I've been working on Linkwarden part-time over the past few months.

Linkwarden is a self-hosted, open-source collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize and archive webpages.

Key features:

  • πŸ“Έ Preserve webpages as Screenshot, PDF, etc. So you can access them even if they are taken down.
  • πŸ‘₯ Collaborative, so you can share your collections with your friends and colleagues. You can also make them public and share them with the world.
  • πŸ“± Designed for every screen size, from widescreen monitors down to smartphones.
  • ⚑️ Open source and fully self-hostable!
  • ✨ And so many more features! (Literally, just didn't want to make this post too long. Check out the Github repo and Website for more info...)

If you like what we're doing, you can support the project by either starring ⭐️ the repo to make it more visible to others or by subscribing to the Cloud plan (which helps the project, a lot).

Things like mobile app (PWA) are already on the project roadmap and I'm so excited to share them with you in the future.

Feedback is always welcome, so feel free to share your thoughts!

Matrix is a terrible experience, honestly. It's incredibly slow and their "servers" don't really function as a community as much as a series of chat groups. I'm not fond of opening my chat app and then staring at it for 10-15 seconds while it loads all the new messages. And yes, I've tried different servers.

Discord is feature-rich. And now has the option to submit posts, which drastically increases usability and searchability. But it does have a big problem with privacy and ads.

Projects like this are much better suited for something like Gitlab.

Element on iOS is absolutely, definitely, slow!

Desktop is better or worse or the same?

Pretty much the same
