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.

Well, do just note- hosting an instance doesn't directly help offset the load of this one-
I had an extra server laying around, 32 cores, 64 threads, 256G of DDR-4, and figured I would host and instance to help offset some load, and support this movement. And- that is how https://lemmyworld.com/ was born.
HOWEVER, as most of the communities were created on lemmy.world. most of the load will stay on lemmy.world. All of this hardware will only get leveraged if/when somebody decides to create a popular community on here.
So, that being said, you can. But, be aware of how lemmy/mastadon/etc is setup.
I'm aware, thanks
Ended up creating an instance just for me, my main reasons were:
I probably forgot about something too...
