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.

@irmadlad @lambalicious I just manually do the audio captcha. Every time. Because the picture captchas often don't work correctly for me.

It does bug me a little that I don't know what the audio captcha is being used for - am I helping an amazon echo transcribe whatever it is surreptitiously listening to?

I've always wondered where the hell they scrape all that audio from. I mean, it's random shit.

Gotta be physicists or fanfic writers. I can not imagine other better options.

idk..Some of the stuff I've heard sounds like they eavesdropped in on a board room roundtable. Other stuff sounds like instructions how to install something. They probably are siphoning data off YT.
