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.

Mumble is another strong, open source, self-hosted option.

If only it didn't looked like a 20 year old software.

Maybe it's just me but I think the Mumble UI is way better than the Discord UI

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago

Yay mumble!

And I agree: it's better. I think it's faster and that, IMHO, is where the power is. It can look boring like a hammer as long as it's intuitive ... like a hammer.

I don't know about the UX, but if you want peoples to use your app, it need to look nice.

I find the login page of discord intelorable, it has ugly EULA on it that I will never sign

Discord is also quite the resource hog. Trying to run the web version on weaker phones is a slog.

Some of the best stuff in the world looks like it's 20 years past a prime that isn't, because they're truly good eternal.

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 months ago

It's voice chat, you choose a server and then minimize to tray, you never have to look at it...

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Especially on mobile.
