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.

Do any of you self-host Overleaf? I know there is a Docker project, but from what I've heard it's not easy to install. The Yunohost version used to work but didn't support file upload, so that makes it bad too.

Have any of you successfully installed Overleaf with e.g. Docker and it works just fine? If so, could any of you share e.g. the Docker Compose file?

I don't really like using Docker so I always go for easier option

Usually docker is the easiest option as you don't have to install a lot of dependencies, then set up other services and databases and whatnot. Especially if you use docker-compose.

The easier option is hunting for Docker Compose...

A Docker Compose is literally just a bunch of Docker commands in yaml format. Can’t say I understand how one can be any easier or harder than the other, considering they basically directly map one to another.

I know, That's why I said I always look for Docker Compose bc it is the easier option.

There’s even a website that translates it for you: https://www.composerize.com/
