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.

Hey selfhosters πŸ‘‹

0.7 is out. Biggest release so far.

Quick context if you missed the previous posts: Ideon is a self-hosted visual workspace for developers. Infinite canvas, everything about a project in one place: notes, Git repos, tasks, files, links, kanbans.

The problem was never too many tools. It was that none of them talk to each other.

What's new:

  • Obsidian import: drop a vault into a project, notes become blocks on the canvas
  • Vercel integration: deploy and check deployment status without leaving the canvas
  • Excalidraw block: killed the old Sketch block, Excalidraw is just better
  • Folder block: group and collapse blocks, helps a lot on bigger projects
  • Drag and drop import: files, folders, text, Excalidraw sketches, drop anything on the canvas and Ideon picks the right block type
  • Vim mode for Note and Snippet blocks, opt-in from Account settings
  • Audio and video playback in File blocks

300+ stars now, more than I expected when I first posted here. Every issue, every comment pushed this forward, thank you.

Anyway. Worth a try if you haven't yet :)

I was meaning to ask:

would it be possible to add sourcehut support? (through their graphql api)

why not, I'll look into it to see what's possible, btw there's a public roadmap if you want to track what's coming soon :
