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 just tried for 10 minutes to edit a date in a spreadsheet in nextcloud mobile and it didn't let me.

I just need an online office suite that works so I am not forced to use GSuite.

I would recommend not using a mobile to edit a spreadsheet, I have tried and gave up as its less the ideal.

I would concur. Using mobile to edit spreadsheets sucks, no matter what system. Google Sheets, O365, etc.

Editing spreadsheets on mobile does suck, but sometimes you just need to do some data entry in the field. If not directly editing spreadsheets, what is a way to capture data to import in to your existing spreadsheet later?

Google Forms seems well suited for that. There are other options but Forms is super easy.

Recommended or not, sometimes it's just really handy to have available. I use Google Sheets for various things (for now), including my monthly budget, and chore/TV/etc schedules for the kids. It's far easier to just pop in on my phone really quick to look at or edit something when needed, instead of pulling out my laptop that may or may not be dead and waiting for that to boot, or going upstairs to my bedroom to sit at my PC, at which point I would have already forgotten what I was supposed to be doing (fuckin ADHD).
