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.

Hey there, it's me again with my cursed project. Last time is said "i basically reinvented Kubernetes". But the voices won and I legit did.

Last time it was a cursed novelty. A random script made by some autistic dude with too much time on its hand.

Now it's become its own project, with ecosystem and overpriced .io domain. For no reason other than : It's cursed, but it works beautifully.

Every Kind is handled by its distinct code. Everything is pluggable, nothing is hardcoded. The next layer of hell is for someone else to write Docker Swarm extensions. Won't be me.

I am, again, very sorry. Sorry for releasing this thing into the world as a complete, working, product.

And sorry for keeping spamming it. I will stop, i promises (the voices will never)

I mean, it's yaml manipulation. It was either python or perl, but i wasn't fucking with perl, i'm insane not mad (or the other way around)

Perl is perfect for curses you have no intention of maintaining. You can pack more dark magic per line.

Why do you think I won't maintain this?

[–] redsand@infosec.pub 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

People rarely maintain open source curses. Manjaro withstanding.

Perl is way crazier than Python that’s for sure. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice project, Python gets you there really fast because the la gauge is loosely coupled, just that when it’s failing it’s blowing up on all ends & it’s not so deterministic, meaning what you run on machine-a will be exactly the same on machine-b.
