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 made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I've been making for the past 5 years.

The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github... not sure how well that went, but hey :D

This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.

Holy shit this is so unbelievably full featured it's not even funny. This is going to rattle some big names. I wonder how long till they try to shut it down because it's better than anything commercially available.

I haven't even tried it yet, but just from the video you can tell it's going to be insanely good. I'm so impressed.

It's the first bit of software I've seen in a long time where I took one look and immediately thought "Fuck me, I need that!"

I use Unraid for my NAS server and just on the off-chance I checked the Unraid community 'app store' and someone's already created a Docker definition for it, published just today! The hype is real

I'll be giving this a shot
