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.

I guess it defeats the point of self hosting. But a common theme is that email self hosting is extremely difficult. Many things to take into account. I'd say go for it and maybe you'll learn a lot in the process. But if you give up on self hosting it, but still want yiue own mail server on your own domain, then I'd say use infomaniak.
Yeah, I don't necessarily want to give up because I think it is cool. Plus, there are use case where receiving is all that matters, like weekly mailing list with fun articles and recommendations, and I hate blowing up an email address just for that. Confirmation is still a problem, but I am willing to experiment with that.
Okay, I will just by the domain name. I have been wanting one for awhile but never took the plunge, and I can't think of anything special... well, I just came up with something better. This is good.
