Selfhosted

40251 readers

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.

Hey there! I was wondering of how you might easily share your instance with others? I've created one mainly for nordic people, but I am struggling to "advertise" it to people. Have any tips for a noob at lemmy instances? Thanks in advance! Oh, and if you are by chance interested in joining, then just go to my account, it's hosted there.

I really agree with you here.

The reddit exodus happened so fast that people didn't think through or have time to learn how to scale in the fediverse.

Subreddits should equal instances.

Common threads/stickies within subreddits should equal communities within instances.

Subreddits should not equal communities.

I 100% agree here. Each instance should focus on a single topic. It makes no practical sense that there are multiple identical communities across different servers.
