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:

  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.

Self hosted place check-ins (seattlelunarsociety.org)
submitted 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I am an information hoarder and liked the Foursquare swarm app for checking into restaurants and other interesting places when I travel, because I love seeing the pins on the map of the places I have been and remembering places later. I have scripts running to download my check-ins and store them in a self hosted map.

But I obviously don’t need to keep giving them my location data. Are there any self hosted alternatives with that kind of international database of places?

How about Dawarich?

I haven't used it myself, but I have it in the backlog of things to try out

I got a Dawarich instance running yesterday, so far it is pretty good. Getting it running over SSL was an absolute nightmare but now that it’s working the tracking is pretty powerful.
