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.

What are you using as a Google photos alternative? Currently I'm using Nextcloud but I'm thinking of switching to a more dedicated solution.

I mainly need to upload photos from my device automatically, have an UI to see and classify them, albuns and sharing.

Omg, i forgot to reply to this one

I don't use docker, it's not fully opensource, and not secure by default

Also, setting up docker and running docker-compose is not the nix way of doing things

Ideally you want to translate docker-compose.yml to nix

Also, yesterday i tried to do this whole thing again, and broke even more than before

This time i was able to run all the containers, but the server couldn't resolve the redis container

You could use podman instead and it's oss and mostly a drop in replacement

I know, those were just my words about docker specifically

Not really drop-in when it comes to docker-compose, or basically any advanced use

My opinion: docker is the worst, podman is better, native nixos is the best

edit: also, just to mention, podman is the default on nixos for oci containers
