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.

Hi everyone

I'm trying to degoogle as much as possible. I've heard about this thing called calDAV and cardDAV but I have no idea how to use it.

With radicale, do I need to install some other somewhere in order to use it?

I'm just looking for basic useage for myself only at this stage. I'd like to be able to self host my own calendar and contacts. Is radicale appropriate for this?

Is it safe to self host a calendar?

Can a self hosted calendar still send and receive invites to other calendars?

Any help greatly appreciated, thank you

Well, thank you for making it public. IIRC, it did help me in a couple things so again, thank you.

Zero AI too

I think you will start to see the 'Zero AI' label starting to pop up on personal blogs and wikis.

Ahahah I like the "zero AI" logo idea, maybe will use AI to create one... :)

Yes I am that bad with graphics

Anyway check the main page of the wiki I explain why I did it.

Actually one of these free logo maker sites and I just screen grabbed it instead of paying for it, then flooded the background with Gimp. However a logo made with AI that says Zero AI would be irony.

Yes, I was trying to be funny.... Don't worry... ;)
