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.

That's right. I don't know if you can just stream an audio file from an rss feed without downloading it first?

The thing that frustrates me about audiobookshelf for audiobooks right now is actually the opposite problem. I like to have my podcasts played locally from my end device (for when I'm on the subway or in the woods and don't have signal). I can download podcast episodes from my server to my phone, but if I'm playing a playlist, it streams from the server instead of playing local copies (looks like it will be fixed soon https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/734), and there is no way to automatically download new episodes to the app when they are added on the server when on wifi (looks like there are no plans to add this feature https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/680).
