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.

  3. Posts here are to be centered around self-hosting. Please ensure it is clear in your post how it relates to self-hosting.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or git here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title.

  6. No trolling.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=hHID50gmkYc&

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

You could technically use this one and just mount everyone else's videos as network drives https://github.com/mediacms-io/mediacms

Yes there is something that's exactly what you're looking for: https://github.com/mediacms-io/mediacms
