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.

If you want persistent messages, use a messaging app like another poster posted. KDE connect should work, but it doesn't work for my setup for some reason.
If you just need transient messages, which is more of my usecase, and lightweight sending, use pairdrop.
snapdrop and pairdrop app from fdroid for Android, pairdrop website in desktop.
You can just use the website instead of app on phone too.
Sending over LAN is local - it doesn't go outside your own network.
If devices are on same WiFi, no pairing required.
You can also send across networks by pairing.
