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.

Do you want it federated or no? If you want it federated, go for Pixelfed. If not, check out Immich.
Pixelfeds album feature is terrible.
I was looking for something better than sharing pictures four at a time on Mastodon and checked out Pixelfed. I don't understand it at all. It's like the system is designed around sharing individual pictures. Even when an instance allows sharing a few pictures at once, other users will only see the first picture because multiple pictures is obviously an afterthought for the UI. Maybe it's because I am too old and I want Flickr instead of Instagram. I'm still posting pictures up to four at a time on Mastodon.
Yeah exactly, I want federated flick, not Instagram.
Oh I had no idea. I was thinking of standing an instance up to explore it.
Is Pixelfed for image storage, or is it more like Instagram?
It's probably more like instagram.
Can you run pixelfed without federation?
Yeah you can.
That's a good question. I am not really certain.
But then it's Instagram without users. Maybe pointless unless some specific edge cases
