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've been interested in doing this, but I can't tell why I need to login to Beeper in order to self host. I noticed their previous self-host solution did not require that.
Because of that login step, I decided to look into this other repo which uses Ansible to deploy a Matrix homeserver and the same bridges that Beeper uses. I haven't finished it yet since there's a lot of config and choices to make, but it seems like it'll serve the same end goal.
Edit: lol, maybe if I read the intro, I'll get my answer.
Still might go with the second option so that I don't rely on their cloud services.
That's a cool solution! I'd be interested in making a nix flake to do something similar to that Ansible project. Thanks for linking!!
Been trying to read through to understand and see how all this is supposed to work, I guess it's so you can use beeper app and infra and APIs to talk to your matrix server and the encryption/decryption/handshake happens here between matrix and beeper and then send to their servers for delivery and all that portion.
