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.

This is kind of hard to explain, but hopefully it makes sense. I don't think a screenshot would help because everything "LOOKS" fine. But the characters in my Ubuntu VM console look funny. And I can't drag my mouse across the text to select it. Nor cacn I right-click. The console works fine, and I can run commands. I don't see the Ubuntu desktop, just this console. I don't even really need the desktop, but if it's there and I can start it up when I want it, that will be OK, but for now I would like to figure out how to get a regular console for this VM. Any ideas? Thanks, and sorry for the newb question!
