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.

A little celebratory post between releases. My docker image reached 0.5mil pulls. Not sure how indicative of the user base, but happy nonetheless ☺

Give it a try: https://github.com/jokob-sk/Pi.Alert

At first, I honestly thought some company named "Half a Million" had removed a press release.

Monitoring your network to check for newly detected devices, or ports and you can get an email, trigger a webhook or other notification services. Check the readme for details πŸ˜‰

I've tried this a few times, so I know I've added more hits to your counters! I know it can be run on non-pi devices which is cool, ever think of changing the name to suggest it's not just for the 'ol pi? :)

Hummm, maybe in the future, but it's a fork so not sure if possible πŸ˜…
