Selfhosted

40460 readers

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'd recommend: https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-ubooquity Easy maintainable and very comfortable to read the ebooks with any browser or download. Also supports multiple users.

I'll second Ubooquity. I have a lot of experience with this, as I've been self-hosting my eBooks and Audiobooks for many years now. Ubooquity is not perfect, but if you're willing to tinker with it, you can get it set up pretty nicely. There are themes, and the Plex theme actually makes it look really slick.

Kavita is the new kid on the block for me - I have been testing it out as a general-purpose eReader but I'm not ready to give it my recommendation yet.
