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:

  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.

As the title what is the best file sharing service than can be self-hostable? Need encryption

EDIT : To be more precise I want something as an alternative to Wetransfer not Google Drive, something to get a link to dl files

Best of luck with encryption on there. Everyone I know tell me NOT to use nextclouds encryption.

It's supposed to be extremely buggy as I've heard. Can't comment much more on that, except fpr this snippet. Maybe it's fixed now, maybe even for long time, but I wouldn't trust it just like that after what I've heard.

I recently checked up on the status of the built in E2EE in NC when deciding what sort of encryption I wanted for data at rest on a self-hosted system. People are still complaining about data loss and horrible bugs. I've been burned before and stay well away from that half-baked implementation. I just use Cryptomator instead.

On the other hand NC supports AI implementation, there's machine learning that sets EVERY SINGLE MAIL to important in the mail app and the ActivitiyPub based Nextcloud Social have almost worked for many years so that's nice.
