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.

For those who do write novels, books etc. What software do you use? What format? FOSS or proprietary?

I don't write novels, but lately found apostrophe (gnome) and ghostwriter (KDE) which are intended to write using markdown, and have a UI intended to allow you to focus on writing. You can later use git to manage versions and backups (in a remote repository).

If you want something more focused on relationships, and regarding the answer from another user suggesting Obsidian, you might use also logseq, but I didn't use it yet (but hear a lot of positive vibes around it).

just started using logseq yesterday, it's really worth trying! even though the minimum onboarding lasts more than an hour 😅
