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.

I want to selfhost a messaging service for my family. It should be secure and have voice calling option, ideally. Thank you.

Why? Existing platforms, especially the plain cell network, are going to be far more compatible and reliable.

Because this is SelfHosted and hosting services yourself is cool?

Some people have very legitimate reasons to want a secure private communication platform, and others are just enthusiastic nerds who do it for fun.
