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.

With the stories about data from period tracking apps being shared with law enforcement, I was wondering if there was a self hosted alternative I could host for my daughter. My searches so far have not returned any good results. Thanks!

Given that Apple is more likely to submit to government (any, any country) coercion and doesn't allow side loading of apps your next phone should be Android. Especially one that supports GrapheneOS or CalyxOS.

Failing that, many apps work as web applications and if saved to the home screen it'll both look and feel like a native app.

Apple's systems are designed so that they don't really have a choice in the matter. The end user holds the only master key.
