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 selfhost a messaging service for my family. It should be secure and have voice calling option, ideally. Thank you.

Why? Existing platforms, especially the plain cell network, are going to be far more compatible and reliable.

Cellphone network calls / texts aint secure at all. If you want to communicate in a secure way you need to use another seevice/app.

Many stated matriy as selfhostable service and i totally agree. Signal/Threema are also good options If you dont want to selhost.
