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.

Connect is the primary reason I find myself stuck to KDE
Don't get me wrong Gnome is great after a few tweaks, but it's not KDE Connect great. Sharing files phone-pc, sms (buggy, but still handy) - love it.

The GSConnect extension enables the same functionality on Gnome, btw.

Yeah but then you have to use gnome when you could be using kde

Why would I use KDE when Gnome is better? 😉
