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.

Honest question. Why host them? Finishing one book can take a while and they are incredibly small.
I just use calibre and sync with my e reader and phone occasionally.
For me (I use Kavita) it’s because I want to be able to just pick up whatever device is in front of me at the moment and pick up the book where I last left off even if it was on another device
Syncing progress seems like a very good reason for hosting. I didn't think of that.
Thanks!
Download whenever I feel like it. Share them.
I do the same thing. I’ve tried Kavita and Audiobookshelf and ended up just keeping the books on a network share and then accessing them through Calibre. I am sideloading to a Kindle though.
You can use calibre-web to send to your Kindle email. They will appear in the Kindle as "Documents"
Because I have a really cool library and it should all be kept in a centralised place
