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.

The reality is a lot of newcomers to Linux won't even understand the risks involved, it's run because that's what they're told or shown to do. That's what I did for pihole many years ago too, I'll admit
Users are blameless, I find the fault with the developers.
Asking users to pipe curl to bash because it's easier for the developer is just the developer being lazy, IMO.
Developers wouldn't get a free pass for taking lazy, insecure shortcuts in programming, I don't know why they should get a free pass on this.
I've been accused of "gate keeping" when I tell people that this is a shitty way to deploy applications and that nobody should do it.
