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.

If you want to self-host it on a server, WriteFreely is as lean text focused platform. Lightweight and pretty easy to spin up and has some basic federation abilities.
If you're a bit more adventurous, I have a soft spot for Plume it is still under development so can be a little more work to get running, but it does have the ability to host images with a built in media manager and more federation interactivity between instances of Plume and also the rest of the fediverse.
If you're on a web host, can't go wrong with WordPress just make sure to use the cache plugins to make sure it is a bit less sluggish.
