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.

In my day job, we use Jira to manage our software development projects. For various things at home, I would also like to use a ticket system, And while I wholeheartedly hate Jira, compared to the open source alternatives I found, it is still the best system.

Is anyone aware of a good alternative that provides a good backlog view, a Kanban board, and the possibility to group tickets together in epics and sagas?

TIL Jira isn't selfhosted anymore?

They require an "data center" subscription now, and they will end support for that in 2029. So self hosting jira is basically not an option anymore.

Comically, the organization with the worst history for virtualization now doubled-down on SAAS. This is certainly going well.

...and their SAAS version is a terrible pain to use

It's sloppy. They cobbles the existing self hosted java app into a SAAS, but it's a horrible foundation. They should have rewritten it, but that's asking them to pay developers instead of executives and profit was clearly prioritized.
