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.

I pointed them right to the problem. Please explain how that isn't helping?
Let's say that yes, you pointed them to "networking". The issue is that they have a specific problem and you are pointing to a topic so broad and deep with no specific direction. But you also say "it's basic". Well if it truly is basic and they still don't get it, this would be a clear indication that they need some level of hand holding. Last if your feeling "that is a lot of work, I don't want to do that" no problem you don't have to. But in that that situation I would suggest reviewing before commenting: is it going to get the person closer to a solution? Is encouraging to the person? Am I indicating I also have this problem indicating someone else could step in and help multiple people at once? Is it funny? If it's no on all those, maybe don't comment.
