Does anybody know an open source self hosted application to create diagrams? Like draw.io or something like that (lemm.ee)

Unless I misunderstand your question, draw.io can be downloaded as a standalone Linux application and run locally.

Likewise, the Xfig package should he available in most Linux repos. It's old, but good enough for a quick sketch.

edit: aha. My mistake. My eyes slid over 'open source' in the title*, and even still I hadn't realized it was an Apache license.

They're looking for something open-source. Draw.io's readme says:

License

The source code authored by us in this repo is licensed under a modified Apache v2 license. This project is not an open source project as a result.

I haven't been through the license to see what its restrictions are, but there must be a reason they give this warning.

Of the changes made last week to the license, this one stands out:

None of the Work may be used in any form as part, or whole, of an integration, plugin or app that integrates with Atlassian's Confluence or Jira products.

That is a weird carve-out, so I'd guess the license revision (and technically the reason it's no longer open source) somehow has to do with Atlassian or their plugin marketplace?

I guess that's how they make a lot of money, selling their own Confluence plugin.
