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:

  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.

Is this sort of lag the nature of package managers that will inherently be part of NixOS and nixpk?

While we were talking I updated lemmy-server using overrideAttrs for my own use. It's honestly not that hard. You change the commit, specify some random incorrect hashes, build it, nix screams at you that the hash is incorrect (and generously provides the correct one), put the correct hash, and build again. Done.

That kinda defeats the purpose of the hash.
