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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

He switched to linux a while back. Now he's trying to switch as much of the rest of his digital life to FOSS/non-profit stuff. He advocates for duckduckgo, firefox, paid email, graphene os, selfhosted vaultwarden, nextcloud, anything but google maps, kodi, etc.

anything but google maps, kodi, etc.

You had me unti kodi was lumped in with google maps?

[–] Drekaridill@feddit.is 32 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't think they're including Kodi with Google maps, I think they're just continuing with the list.

[–] bastion@feddit.nl -2 points 10 months ago

yeah. poorly worded.

[–] Zeoic@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

"anything but google maps" is its own list item, not starting a new list. That list just doesn't have a googlemaps alternative in mind so they used that.

[–] bastion@feddit.nl 3 points 10 months ago

yeah, that was ambiguously worded.

You need to work on that reading comprehension.

Nah - the english language is just full of ambiguities that people tend to understand through context or intonations from speaking that are lost in text

But not Youtube. Which is Google.

Curious.

[–] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean...not that curious. It's his entire livelihood at the moment.

[–] lambalicious@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So it's "You get off Google but not me! And keep subsidizing me!"?

It's about 15% more understandable, but still, the same crap I expect by default from that kind of person.

Letting perfection be the enemy of the good is why we can't have nice things.
