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.

Soulseek has everything literally. most common stuff are actually flac files

awesome! i'll check this out!

sorry for the n00b question, but why do i need to self host a persistent daemon and then connect to it using a webUI? can't i just use a soulseek client on my local machine? i'm not really familiar with the architecture of soulseek.

You can just use a soulseek client.

However I have a build of this daemon running on a Qnap storage device, which is super handy just for ad-hoc music searches, and people can also peruse my music library 24/7.
