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.

Is it for a general instance or perhaps a specific niche/topic? Either way, anything short and simple is enough. Most people don't like typing long addresses.
What do you think of fdr8.us? Then I could do some subdomains off of it like lemmy.fdr8.us and mastodon.fdr8.us.
I like it. You could make that work.
Thanks for the feedback! After days of thinking about it and checking availability it was the best I had come up with so I just went for it. Those urls should work soon if all goes according to plan.
Have fun!
Do .us domains still have a strict locality-based naming scheme? Or did they end that policy?
The policy still exists. I am located in California and had to attest to where I am from and how I intend to use the domain.
I'm thinking general instance, but I don't want a bunch of right wing or religious stuff so I will have some ground rules.
