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.

I'm doing a project of my own on an eink display. Like the other poster mentioned it's an esp32 but it has a full dev kit. It's called the paper v1 from m5stack. The esp32 has wifi, bluetooth, the eink display is touch enabled, it is a fully enclosed little device with a battery so it doesn't need to be plugged in constantly. Possibly cheaper option than a pi+eink like you're looking at, and likely uses a lot less electricity. I've seen videos of people who upgrade the battery in theirs. I'm not sure those applications work on it, but it's possible something similar is built for the esp32.
