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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I sort of get it. When you self host mastodon or lemmy, you have to deal with the moderation that comes with it. That's a headache unless you have a ton of free time. Judging by the age distribution, I'm guessing most of us just want things to work so we can do what we enjoy.
@CosmicTurtle0 hosting a single user federated blog is also an option, you are only responsible for yourself and your friends you host. Not necessary to host public.
I wonder what federated blog (or publishing platform) isn't stuck in pre-Docker era, though.
I know ghost has a container deployment and uses activity pub
@𝘋𝘪𝘳𝘬
you mean bare metal deployments?
Yeah. While I can dockerize those applications, all I checked out lack modern features and concepts/designs. It all feels heavily outdated technology-wise.
@𝘋𝘪𝘳𝘬 I think thats the fun of it, different people building tools as per their knowledge/requirements, with time i'm sure someone will make something that you might find suitable :)
Not just moderation, but you are responsible for all content on your server, some of which may be illegal and hosting it is a IRL crime, but the sheer size of it is impossible to filter.
Happy Cake Day (Are we doing this here on Lemmy?)
Thanks
You can run those as single-user instances or with approval of users so you can use those instances for your family and/or friends only.
