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.

They are talking about the people developing lemmy, not some petty fight with the admins of one specific instance.

The Lemmy devs have no power over instances they do not run themselves.

Other than writing the software that all of those instances use to stay up to date and in contact with each other, regardless of their federation status.

can't people just take the lemmy source code and make their own version of the lemmy api?
