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 kind of tired of Nextcloud because it's using so many resources on my server and I'm only using it for calendar and address book for two users. So I'm looking for alternatives, what do you use (only self hosted) and how do you like it?

Radicale, and I only sync when at home on the LAN. Super simple to setup, requires minimal maintenance and very few resources.

Thunderbird on our workstations syncs directly to Radicale, and it's an overall good experience.

I use DAVx⁵ to sync on Android/GrapheneOS, but not overly thrilled with the calendaring options there...Etar works "okay".

Add Tailscale to your devices and sync from anywhere.

Or just on a device at home, and enable Funnel, which can route external connections to specified local resources over your Tailscale net.

Or simply set up wireguard.

At least I suffered from terrible battery life with Tailscale, while 24/7 wireguard isn't even showing on the battery stats.
