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

@irmadlad @selfhosted That is precisely the challenge. I’m not sure it is possible.
The hardware requirements are quite steep, but I've got local AI running in my house. It's mostly just there for when I want to screw around with it, but technically I could setup OpenClaw and point it to my AI server to use as its brain.
I'm not stupid enough to do that on any real computer I use, but it might be cool to do on a VM where I can tightly control what it can see and have access to. Of course, that limits its usefulness, but security has a cost.
At the same time, I can see the allure of a real digital assistant. I'm old enough to remember when professionals had personal assistants that not only helped them keep track of their work life, but also their personal life. Scheduling their personal life like doctors appointments or house repairs. Dealing with vendors to make sure stuff actually gets done, and making sure they are in the right place at the right time. That would be rad to have.
I mean, I can run a few of the private AI stacks, but it is excruciatingly slow as to make it not worth the time. I would want something pretty responsive.
@irmadlad This what I want too. It’s farther down my to-do list, but I’ll be sure to let you know if I discover anything. Good luck!
Ok. Yeah, if I'm going to create all my tentacle porn with AI, it should do so while I'm still in the mood. /s LOL
