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.

Just for fun, a few associations I'm part of want to set up our own IP-phone network, with our own phone numbers and such.

  • Is this possible?
  • How would one go about doing this?
  • Does it have to be it's own separate network or can it work via the internet without special setup beyond a public IP?

I've been running 3CX for a couple of years with a Voicehost trunk configured. I found it much simpler than free PBX to setup and maintenance has been a breeze. There's apps or a web based option too. 3CX can be a little picky with older unsupported hardware - the old Cisco phone I bought was a tricky setup, but the Yealink I have phone was plug and play easy.

The tricky bit was configuring the opnsense router and firewall to correctly handle all the ports properly, but I think that'd be the same for any solution and for an internal only option probably not required.
