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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I thought of a weekly thread to post about what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you read.

So I decided to just try it. Maybe we find a format that works! It doesn't have to be me, feel free to create this post on Sunday if it's not up already.

No issues at the moment but need to update a few containers when I get the chance. I also need to set up contacts sync in radicale for the address book and integrate it with Thunderbird and davdroid.

In the near term I've been working on a plan to make sure my keepass db is accessible to my SO and family in the event of my demise. I recently lost a dear friend and had to gain access to his stuff for his family, luckily he didn't have the linux partition encrypted so I got a recovery shell then remounted the disk and changed the password and could then also mount the windows partition once I logged in.

It made me think as all my stuff is encrypted and there is no way someone would guess it nor crack it so I'm writing documentation and leaving it with family members.

The documentation explains how to use keepass and who to contact for support. Im leaving the db with family members and the password with a select few people that dont have the db. My SO will have access to all the info too.

I'll update the db periodically and give them a newer version but keep the same password

I encourage you all to consider this too.
