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.

I was recently introduced to Croc which is great for point-to-point immediate shares. If you want something async, I wrote Korra some years ago. It might do the job for you.
Croc has worked nicely for me when I had to transfer very large files. I'll check out Korra next time if "async" means it will start transferring once the first file is hashed. That always annoyed me about Croc and I'd manually break my transfers into chunks because I didn't want to wait 10min before even one file was transferred.
Not really. It's async in the sense that you can send a file now, and the server will hold it in an encrypted state until your recipient comes to collect it.
Ah, so it's not [necessarily] a direct transfer between peers.
Nope. It's definitely not. The idea is just to make it safe(r) to share files within an organisation. The assumption is that for direct P2P sharing you'll want something simpler like Croc.
