Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

A cloud password manager is a database with your passwords hosted on a stranger’s computer. Why wouldn’t I be just as trustworthy as any other stranger on the internet?
If you can't see the difference for yourself, I won't be able to show you.
There is no difference other than a shiny logo and a “contract” that promises you that the random stranger will take care. I promise that I will take care too.
If you still think there is a relevant difference, please tell me. To me, it looks like you don’t fully understand what a password manager stored on other people’s computers does.
Well they have an app for all the platforms i use, customer support, open sourced code, previous and existing customers that have experience and that recommend them freely, a track record of success, a verifiable business address, operations in a country whose legal system I recognise and offers me certain protections, the ability for me to pay using my preferred method of payment, and most important - not some willfully ignorant representative giving fallacious arguments against using a service.
