Selfhosted

57156 readers

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.

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

The thing about these front ends is that Google will eventually get around to blocking your IP. After many unsuccessful attempts that got ban hammered after a week or so, I finally got it to work. I piped it through Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust. Haven't had an issue. My deployment was the Invideous with companion app. The Companion app has been complaining about being unhealthy for ages now, but it keeps right on ticking. I don't watch a huge number of YT videos. Usually my consumption is a tutorial here or there.

Yeah if you are running a private instance, you look like legitimate traffic to Google.
