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.

I dunno, I found it easier to move my family to JF.

I made them a bunch of accounts and sent them via signal.

For my mum I logged in as her and configured everything how she would want.

I didnt have to explain to anybody that remote stream needs to be unlimited bandwidth for better performance.

If mum forgets her password I can reset it.

To log her TV in we used quick connect where I had her enter the 6 digit code on the tv.

We used SyncPlay to watch a movie together.
