Self-hosting is an acceptable temporary solution to a lack of privacy regulations but not a sustainable long-term one.

That’s like saying a farmer will put cheese on a piece of cardboard for the mice to eat.

They might eat it yes, but that wasnt the reason for the whole interaction to start. The glue around the cheese was.

I’m glad that you see my point that “other people hosting your data” is not really a good idea.

If you expect your IT cousin/uncle/brother hosting the family immich/nextcloud to not be a trusted person in regards of bad actors your issue is not exclusive to selfhosting.

Create a post

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.
