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.

Nice big old port scan. Brand new server too. Just a few days old so there is nothing to find. Don't worry I contacted AWS. Stay safe out there.

I think they have a LOT to learn about how the internet 'works' as well as how the internet works.

Thing is, for the average consumer of the internet, they have no real concept what's going on behind the webpage with the fancy graphics they happen to be looking at. When I try to explain to them that bots comprise conservatively 40-50% of all internet traffic which is about ~2 zettabytes per 24 hour period, they still don't get it. And really, they don't have to, that's the job of sysadmin. It's still pretty mind blowing.
