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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

If it's easier to delete the post guess what people will do.
Do something once? Ew.
Do something infinitely? 🥵💦
sounds logical, the biggest logical, even
How is it easier to delete a post every time than to set preferences to not be emailed just once, then you never have to again?
How do I do that for just that post? And how do I ignore replies for that post so I didn't get any other notices?
if you don't want replies, just don't post. everyone will be better off than if you are deleting posts. actually it's the easiest thing to do.
that being said. are you guilty of deleting your posts after they had discussions? because if so, I'll just block you because you are taking away value from the community, not adding to it
Somebody may want an answer and once they get it don't want the other replies to keep notifying them.
No I don't do this. But it's remarkable that all the lemmykins arguing with me and down-voting me simply can't see things from another person's pov.
Why don't you like getting replies? That's the fun part!
I see you've opted to just redefine somebody's requirements rather than solve their problem.
Honestly, it's my favorite argument tactic.
