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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Your own nextcloud instance. Then move everything that is saved at Google over to your own server.
Calenders, Filesync, Contacts sync with android works really nice.
Knowing my data is stored only on my own devices and google doesn't know more about me than I do is a nice feeling.
I've tried this once or twice but always end up not using it because I don't trust myself to keep a server up.
Would you consider hosting your own Nextcloud through a provider like Hetzner a nice intermediary step?
Yes. Hetzner's offering is reliable and not too expensive. You do trade off a lot of the privacy and flexibility though.
