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.

Take back the control on your data, that's the whole point.. :) Where are you regularly saving data? Those are the prime candidates. Look at self-hosted alternatives for those services. I know big webapps hosted in docker containers managed by kubernetes is all the rage around here, but you can often find Unix style equivalent for such services, the main advantage of putting it on a server being to be able to access it from multiple devices. But you do you, if you prefer hosting big webapps, that's fine too. :)
Thing is, I already have control over my data, now I'm wondering what else I can do with it. I mostly save data locally, the only things I'm really missing are a sync for my password manager and for my Firefox stuff (I don't use ff sync), but I'm also planning to upgrade my "server" and am wondering what to upgrade it with, that's why I'm asking for ideas, because idk what to upgrade it with... It's got a fairly decent CPU (some AMD FX 8core), 16GB ram, but no GPU ( fully headless rn) and only 128GB storage... So yeah, that's why I'm asking for ideas...
