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.

What about a torrent? You'll have to encrypt with 7zip or something to keep it secure, but that and qbitorrent will do the trick.

Qbittorrent or Rutorrent has some kind of extension to allow single private file sharing

Or can a private magnet link accomplish this?

Idk but I wouldn't risk it when it's easy to encrypt stuff. Good security is done in layers.

through the public BitTorrent tracker, I'll try it too, thanks
