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.

Not sure if this is the exact right terminology, but essentially I’m looking for recommendations for a self-hosted solution (Linux) allowing creation of records for things like car, house, computer etc. with the ability to add notes for things like servicing, upgrades, processes and procedures. A nice to have, but not essential feature, could be a calendar with reminders on upcoming events relating to each asset. I’ve considered setting up a wiki, static site CMS or even just a note taker like Obsidian or LogSeq, but figure there are probably more dedicated tools out there. Also I have little to no experience with those listed, other than static site CMS which I use for work in web development. Thanks in advance for recommendations that are working for you.

It may be possible to get something usable, but why reinvent the wheel when there are so many tried and tested options out there already? Part of the problem is I don’t know exactly what I want yet, and seeing not only what others are using, but how they’re using it is incredibly helpful. IMO this real world experience isn’t something gen AI can replicate. Thank you for the suggestion though.
