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.

Bitwarden is a very convenient password manager for an average computer user. It's very straightforward and easy to use.
I can see some bias here of the people who say "o, just use KeePass and sync the database over some cloud provider". What if there are conflicts? How do they deal with them? I can figure it our but most people I know, won't.
Even the password manager concept is a complicated concept to grasp for many people (that I know). And I can recommend them Bitwarden because it's relatively easy, but KeePass with sync? Maybe, if I commit to actively help them with it.
P.S. I've convinced several people to try out Linux, and they are willing to learn it, but even if they just need to use a browser, they struggle sometimes. I can't imagine them syncing the KeePass database.
Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn't imagine Keepass+syncthing.
Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.
Better than using what? All I see is a bunch of stars.
