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.

Seems like the intro clears some things: https://gamevau.lt/docs/intro It looks like you install the server component on your NAS/server etc and store your game files/binaries/installers there. Then you can download client applications and download from that location to install on your gaming PC or whatever
So basically Plex/jellyfin for non drm games it sounds like.
Thanks for clearing this up. I definitely have no use for this. I wish I did, but alas.
From a legal standpoint, the description (share DRM-free games with your friends) is also questionable as it's currently worded. Copyright still applies to games that don't use DRM. For OP, it might be a good idea to ask a lawyer to look this over and write a proper legal disclaimer, so they don't end up being liable for copyright infringement.
I thought you are legally allowed to share copyrighted/DRMed stuff with friends and family?
