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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

why this over keepassxc?
When someone says "use KeePass", we generally mean ”use an app based on KeePass".
Personally, I use the OG KeePass (work laptop), KeePass XC (all personal machines), Keepass2Android (personal Pixel), and Keepassium (work iPhone).
Whichever one you use is entirely subjective. Also, XC wouldn't exist without the OG KeePass, so maybe don't be a tribal weird-ass over it.
I've been wanting to move to KeePass from my current vaultwarden. What's the most seamless way to synchronize the DB across GrapheneOS and Arch?
I trust Syncthing for syncing files, but it kind of feels insufficient for an actual encrypted database.
What works for you for syncing?
The encrypted database is a file. Syncthing handles it perfectly fine. KeePass' protocol has versioning and merge support built right in, so all of the KeePass variants work great with each other without issues over Syncthing.
Just make sure you're not editing the database on multiple machines at the same time - that'll cause merge conflicts.
Thanks, that was exactly what was happening, at least in some cases. I was modifying icons on my laptop while messing with the templates on my phone.
Personally, I use a plugin for passphrases and - last time I looked - the other forks didn't handle them.
Does keepassxc support plugins now?
On my phone, I use KeePassDX from F-Droid and KeePassDroid (Not sure if that's being maintained at the moment?)
The main point is; we need to support open source developers, so pick an open-source solution and contribute, donate, etc.
KeePassXC has passphrase generation built in
