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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Right, but when there's third parties involved which you may not trust (which is almost always going to be the case when talking to users not on your server), e2e's benefit starts becoming a lot more enticing. And while you have a point on out of band key sharing being annoying, it makes sense as a default - especially when content is going across servers. Content should be secure with an opt-out rather than insecure with an opt-in. The latter is just more error prone.
Also: while it's not friction free, apps like signal have shown that you can get verified e2e to be usable for the general population.
