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 have just seen that gfycat is shutting down. i love sticking in a GIF, but would love a way to keep and categorise my gifs, and be able to embed/copy them into my banter.

Anyone know of something that could do it?

cheers

This might help, haven’t tried it but their proof of concept website looks promising.

That's cool, thanks for sharing. I wish there was a way to plug this as the backend to my android keyboard.

ta. yeah i am going to try and host it based off of B2 (not AWS S3), mainly for me. it looks like the system is set up to allow for a shared set of users, where everyone can see everyones GIFs.

I'm not a heavy GIF user but I use Lychee for the still-image version of what you want. I can't speak to how well it works with gifs, though. It may be worth a look

Honestly just using selfhosted cloud or file sync and just putting GIFs from the gallery

it doesnt really add the meta-data to easily search for them. i had a folder with them, but really need something that will make the search part easy.
