Selfhosted

39216 readers

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.

I love their offerings and wanted to see if there's anything similar which is open source.

Thanks. Daily user of omnivore here.

However, they're not really a replacement for Readwise (especially the way they re-surface highlights), more like a replacement for pocket/wallabag.

Fair enough. I actually switched from Readwise to Omnivore, as I found the Readwise workflow to be quite painful. I use it for getting things into Obsidian, so I don't use the re-surfacing features etc.

With that minimal self-hosted version, do you know if you can log into it using the firefox extension on linux? The only client they mention is the iOS one.

No idea sorry, I don't self-host, I just knew that it had the option.

Interesting, thanks!

I've been meaning to host something like this. Tried to do it with wallabag, but couldn't be arsed to set-up and SMTP server just for the confirmation email.
