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.

I only launched it for long enough to tell it isn't for me just yet. My dealbreakers are:

  • Inability to quickly swap between audiobook and podcast libraries, or better yet; displaying both on one home screen.
  • Audiobooks are thrown at you in one big pile. Ideally they would be organized, and not all shown at once unless you dig into it.

I'm definitely checking it out again at some point, but I'm sticking with the official app for now.

I downloaded and tested as well and noticed right away there is no sleep timer which I use every night. I actually quite like the audiobook shelf app. It's served my wife and I quite well this past year.
