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:

  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.

There is actually one use case for it. I create a yearly backup that i distribute across my friends (mostly via CD-ROMs) which include all my files that i can't afford to lose, like encryption keys, keepass database, crypto wallets (everything that isn't encrypted data gets aes-encrypted via gpg and a 512-bit key which is stored in the keepass database). But if say a malicious actor gets access to it by social-engineering they could start brute-forcing the keepass-database (good luck though with my passphrase and 10-rounds of argon2 with 4-threads and 4gig vector size), by splitting it into fragments that vector would be closed.
