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:

  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 want to make my own website, like a blog where I talk about tech and tutorials and such. Something like https://kerkour.com and https://lukesmith.xyz. Any ideas for simple but modern design?

I'm yet to understand why people downvote comments like yours. Your answer was on-topic, provided a reasoning, was well-written... even if I haven't fully recovered from the trauma of having two wordpress sites hacked, I still think your comment has merit.

That's was some fanboy of those overly complex but allegedly simple new-age bullshit website compilers (Hugo) where you place a bunch of markdown files in a folder, install 200MB of dependencies to compile the thing into HTML that you can then deploy via a closed solution such as GitHub actions to a closed ecosystem like Cloudflare. The same guy who'll discover in a few years they won't be able to "compile" their blogs anymore because some dependency is broken, their SEO is trash, Cloudflare is no longer free, GitHub actions require a subscription etc... you know, our run-of-the-mill piece of shit developer from 2023 so up their asses who don't understand shit about what their doing and that can't even be bothered with a simple drag-and-drop to a FTP.

If Hugo stops working down the line, you can compile your markdown with something else. Simple is king!
