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 don't suppose your script is published anywhere? My comment adjacent to yours mentions how something like Mastodon's Relay system would really help solve this issue, and it sounds like what you've made is probably the closest thing we'd have to a relay system for a while (given the core devs being super super busy with the existing issues).
On a side note, I wish there was also a way to set the homepage of an instance to "All" as well (which can be done user-side, but not globally), my instance only has a meta-community for announcements, so I can imagine that it just looks like an absolute ghost town to anyone who stops by.

That's cool, thanks i'll check it out. I also found https://github.com/Fmstrat/lcs
That‘s so helpful, thank you for sharing it with us! One question: If I want to update my known communities in a month or so, can I just rerun the script or will that cause issues?
You should be able to rerun it anytime. It only gets stuff that doesn’t exist on your instance. That’s how it was designed. It is dependent on browse.feddit.de however. :(
