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.

Selfhosting Overleaf (szmer.info)

Do any of you self-host Overleaf? I know there is a Docker project, but from what I've heard it's not easy to install. The Yunohost version used to work but didn't support file upload, so that makes it bad too.

Have any of you successfully installed Overleaf with e.g. Docker and it works just fine? If so, could any of you share e.g. the Docker Compose file?

Also, I’d like to point out that Overleaf’s hosting and pricing options are quite reasonable, especially if you’re working for a university or institution: https://www.overleaf.com/user/subscription/plans

While I did take advantage of the free Overleaf Pro during my university days, I don't have it anymore after graduating, and so I'm missing some features which their free tier doesn't have.
By self-hosting I'm given better control, and all those features I once had before.

Also, the whole point of this community is to kind of avoid relying on third-party hosting, and especially paying for it too🙂
