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.

If there's an article with words, can you pass it along? I'm not inclined to go on a Google website and listen to someone slowwwwly tell me why Google is bad.

Life's too short to listen to people who talk slow.

Articles too much time too, so I made you this

  • Google bad, tracking sucks
  • Android -> graphene
  • Keep -> joplin
  • Docs -> nextcloud
  • Gmail -> proton
  • GMaps -> car GPS
  • Tailscale
  • Selfhosted on SteamDeck

GMaps -> car GPS

What? No. OSM or literally anything else than a fucking car. Stars and sextant.

Investigate CoMaps... There's some drama around Organic Maps due to bad leadership

Because traffic data can't be obtained without some tracking...

In Japan they have an IR beacon system to track traffic congestion which works anonymously and lets offline car navigation systems have good-quality traffic info.

Tailscale -> Headscale after you get comfy.

[–] Willdrick@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

It's on my to-research list. I heard some rumblings that tailscale might go IPO. Not that's bad by itself but I have been burned by stuff like that leaving me stranded once they "pivot their operations to maximize investor satisfaction" (aka enshittification)

I think he actually used something else than proton, he didn’t mention though. Except that he uses his own domain name.

I drive believe he has started hosting his own email though
