Selfhosted

57169 readers

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.

I still haven't found a Google Drive replacement. Nextcloud is way too bloated. Seafile is way too complicated to install.

FileGator seemed like another possible solution...

Copyparty is awesome. You don't even need to sync you can just mount WebDAV

Surely awesome, but sync is one-side only. This is a nogo for my usecases.

Agreed, copyparty is awesome. However, the one obvious downside is that you lose guaranteed offline support (some clients may allow for it, but it's not baked in).
