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.

I am assuming this would be non commercial. I think in that case you probably would be exempted from GDPR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation#Exemptions
No, public websites are explicitly not covered by this exemption even if no profit motive is involved.
Interesting - The Wiki article seems to make it out to be less about commercial that the actual links to the articles provided. I'll keep reading, thank you
Yes I think you’re right, but also IANAL. From what I learned in a mandatory class at work, I think the GDPR only covers commercial activity. GDPR is supposed to protect citizens when engaging in commerce:
Lemmy doesn’t charge a subscription fee or sell ads (yet), so it’s acting as a kind of personal messaging system for communicating between people. The GDPR explicitly says it doesn’t regulate personal messaging systems like email. I think Lemmy would fall under that exemption clause.
