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.

Mumble and Wireguard
Some of my friends are heading back to mumble because discord is getting too bloated with useless features.
Wireguard is to be able to access my local network when I am away.
Check out Tailscale. It uses Wireguard under the hood, but it's magic.
God stop pushing tailscale. It's just abstraction on top of wireguard. Those of us who knows how VPNs work don't want a third party involved in our routing.
Wireguard is quite magic itself
I hear about people wanting alternatives to discord though I never got into using it too much personally, but does anyone know about whether or not Revolt chat is a good open-source self-hostable solution?
I've been testing MatterMost for a few days.
It's closer to Slack than Discord but has most of the same features.
I have tried and their documentation is too complex and incomplete for self hosting. Right now, for communication, I have mumble for VoIP and ngircd as an irc server.
It pretty much covers 80% of discord use case. I am looking for something that support video chat/screen sharing. Synapse is honestly not bad at all. But it's too power hungry for my liking. I wish Jitsi could have better ux for average consumer. It feels too business like.
Wireguard + adguard means home ad blocking anywhere I want it.
Or WireGuard + PiHole
