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:
-
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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

People per se are lazy (not derogatory) and will almost always use the path of least resistance, unless there's something to gain. And most people don't notice any negative influence on their lives from these data-grabbing platforms
You're so right! I use a VPN, Linux adblockers as much as possible and various other privacy focused technologies and my partner just thinks I'm paranoid.
They love that their instagram algorithm can serve them highly personalised clothing ads 😆
Sometimes I wonder if I fail my spouse with not convincing her to privacy, or I let her make her own decisions
I'd argue if you took the step of explaining some privacy concerns with her existing internet activity with her, and after that conversation, they decided against taking precautions, it's just their decision to partake in the system.
With that being said, you should take precautions for your own personal devices and things such as appliances/IOT if you are privacy conscious and want to protect the household from leaks.
I have this issue. I have also explained that everyone she communicates with didn't consent to having their communications intercepted by other parties.
This is me, too, and not bothered that their instagram algorithm can serve them highly personalized political propaganda just as easily. At least not enough to leave.
