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.

Only people who hate themselves
Yeah, after I got my lemmy and matrix servers up and running I started looking at doing mail myself... The rabbit hole just kept getting deeper and darker, and MTAs seems to have stopped evolving in the 90s so I gave up. Email for my lemmy instance is now handled by Google. I've always used on of the big players (currently Outlook because I got a good username when they opened up the outlook.com domain) for my personal email.
good call. the time spent getting postfix, dovecot and spamassassin set up so they actually work is nontrivial, and then once you congratulate yourself that it's all working perfectly, none of your email will be delivered, so you can then start learning about how overzealous blacklisting works.
I've been apparently hating myself for a few years now. It's going alright though. Google still accepts my emails. Hotmail appears to have blocked me but I'm working on it. I haven't noticed any other problems so far
