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.

Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal (lemmy.world)

I am looking for self hosted blog/journal that is private by default. Not looking to host a public blog, rather something that I can write more personal entries on and is easy to read later. I want to be able to include multimedia in the entries.

Currently I'm thinking of a Mastodon server with posts set to private by default and turning off federation. It would be awesome to be able to post from my phone as events happen rather than having to find time later.

I've tried around with using IMAP and an email client, but not sold on it. Tried using a calendar, but too cludgy.

Open to other ideas!

Here are some options:

  • crypt.ee: I tried this before, I don’t think it’s selfhostable but quite usable, and nice UI. Encryption available. Ghost folders if you want to. Multimedia available, not sure about storage
  • joplin: you can use Nextcloud (or many other options like Dropbox) for sync and hence storage depends on your cloud solution. E2EE, has plugins, and simple enough to use.
  • anytype.io and logseq: I’ve seen these mention in many places but I haven’t used either. But they seem to have very rich features, not sure about selfhosting though.
