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.

Yes you can do that. I do with opnsense. The username and passwd are not obvious though - they're probably not what you use to login to the ISP portal with.
Most ISPs will have a brief FAQ on how to use third party equipment with the basics of what settings are important for your connection. You just need to enter them in to pfsense correctly. Also, sometimes searching for "<ISP_name> pfsense" can find useful blogs and articles.
