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.

Hello I am looking to self host my own pixelfed account just because I like self hosting and like sharing pics.

I saw there is a sign in with mastodon option on the pixelfed site and was curious if I host a mastodon instance instead, could I then use pixelfed with the same account?

I have a lemmy, mastodon, and pixelfed account right now and from doing a few experiments it seems mastodon has the best federation with both pixelfed and lemmy as far as commenting back and forth so it would be pretty neat to use a mastodon instance if that is possible

Your data will be on whatever server you select. It's not "sign up with Mastodon", it's "sign in with Mastodon".
