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.

Hey all,

I'm kind of new to self hosting, and currently repurposing my old PC as a home server. I already set it up to run nginx in docker, so I can use SSL on every website. The next thing for me would be to set up some kind of persisent workspace, that I can access from everywhere (specifically my ipad). I already had a look at kasm, but it looks to overkill. What i want:

  • Persisent workspace, independent from Ubuntu server
  • Some kind of Linux distro with a known package manager
  • accessible through browser, or iPad app
  • multiple users?
  • password protected

Thanks,

What do you want to do with this workspace? Are you looking for a VNC controlled Linux desktop environment? Or a "codespace" with an editor and a terminal in the browser? Or an office suite? Or..?
