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.

curl|sh? Are they lazy or just misled as noobs into thinking vi is the only editor out the--You guys, I just realized how vi masochists actually reproduce. It's like zombies, guys, eating brains until the victim raises up another zombie.
And that
curl|sh-- does it invite supply-chain exploits? Ohhh, you bet it does! Best black-box script ever! Use this as a test for your security people -- if they gauge this as a threat from within another threat, they pass. But, honestly, had it not been for the horrible spelling, I wouldn't have thought to check further. \shrug. Mineshafts and canaries I guess.How are the alternatives any better? Download a DEB that executes arbitrary code, signed with some .asc that's sitting in the same webserver? Download an EXE?
