Best of luck. What do you find lacking so far?

  1. There is no obvious way to install Hoarder on an unsupported platform. My servers run OpenBSD and OmniOS. Both of them don’t even have any Docker support. (Which is not something I’d absolutely need, to be honest.)
  2. Hoarder runs on Node.js. I will use Lisp (edit: or Rust, but I’m positive I’ll beat Lisp’s session management some time soon). Node.js is a dependency hell.
  3. Hoarder does not really encourage manual and/or regex-based tagging, it strongly suggests relying on “artificial intelligence”. As I am rather disappointed by what “artificial intelligence” is currently able to do, I’d prefer to default to the old approach.

Of course, all of this is just a personal preference.

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.
