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.

Need to get something that supports ActivityPub on the list, but other than that looks pretty cool.
I didn’t know about minimalgpt. How is it?
I actually wrote MinimalGPT as a project for myself because I found using ChatGPT annoying for certain things.
It’s just a minimal chat client where you provide an OpenAI API key for GPT and you’re off to the races.
Conversations and all data (besides the messages you send to OpenAI) are stored locally to your browser.
https://minimalgpt.app, it’s also a PWA application so you can save it to your mobile Home Screen for a full app experience.
GitHub Repo with a fleshed out readme for more info.
