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.

Yeah, but at least it's source available :P
Non-commercial clause, for those who are curious.
It doesn't allow for forking so it is effectively proprietary. It is critical that the community can fork something when they don't like the direction.
I agree that's an important aspect of open source, but for me personally it's more about being able to audit what is running on my machine. the fact that they show you the code lets me see and confirm for myself that they aren't doing anything shady like spying. Though it might not be good enough for some people it definitely is for me.
It's a level of transparency you won't ever get from truly "proprietary" software.
My concern is that FUTO will start claiming that some other third party clients are stealing the code.
Be mindful that you don't look at the Grayjay code before contributing to something like Newpipe
it does allowing forking and redistributing, but you cannot remove or obscure functionality related to payments. https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay/-/blob/master/LICENSE.md
It doesn't respect the 4 freedoms thus it isn't foss. Use it if you want but keep in mind that FUTO has full control over the rights of Grayjay.
Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, I don't like that at all.
I use Tubular (Newpipe with Sponsorblock) from polymorphicshade, though lol.
Been a NewPipe user since the very first alpha
