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.

For highest security don't store in cloud or multiple places. Memorize them or keep a separate device that has no intermet access and keep them on that device encrypted/locked

Memorizing passwords just leads to passwords that are easy to attack with dictionary attacks and to password reuse.

I memorize the random generated ones, you type it in enough it becomes muscle memory.

My password database contains a few hundred entries. Good luck memorizing that.

Thats why my second suggestion was a secondary device with no internet access. And a hardware key gor additional security is a good idea.
