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.

Just taking a minute to share this podcast with y'all. I know it's already in the sidebar here, but thought Alex & Chris deserve a shout out for their great show.

They talk about the week's news and their own experiences hosting at home. Listening to them talk tech makes me more confident about my hosting.

Most of their ‘content’ is the hosts reading our donations each episode and playing obnoxious sound effects. It used to be much, much better, but this crypto stuff ruined it all. I really wouldn’t even bother.

If you want a good Linux how, check out the Late Night Linux family of shows. They have programming stuff, Linux stuff, comedy, Linux news, and more. They’re pretty legit and have a strict real content policy.

I wouldn’t say most but it is a reality of most podcasts these days that they’ll shout out donors. I kind of like the goofy sound effects personally and the rest of the podcast is chill and perfect for background listening. Of course everyone has their own preferences. I find LUP interesting enough for my level of Linux (enthusiastic amateur).

I think you’re thinking of one of their Linux podcasts.

I’ll admit LUP is worse but self hosted has a lot of the crypto stuff too.

The only crypto self hosted has really relates to their show donations. They really don’t talk much about crypto at all. I think mostly because unlike the other shows, Alex is the dominant personality on self hosted and Chris despite being goofy is relegated more to side kick.
