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.

I have a Kobo Forma and a Boox Lumi.
The Lumi is huge and works well for manga, especially considering the sad state of legally obtainable manga in the United States where everything requires proprietary Android apps, or if you want to do workbooks or something using the stylus. It's surprisingly good, even for things you wouldn't normally do an an ebook device. I've never used any of the smaller Boox devices so I can't say whether it's the same for all of them.
The Forma is a normal size so it's much more portable.
Both of them have wifi and you can run your own software on them, but I think running your own software on Kobo devices is less well supported than running your own software on Boox devices.
