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.

Or do you use anything else to archive the mighty www?

Yep, been self-hosting it locally for a while now. To put simply, I archive anything that is within my personal realm of interest that I believe has a chance to be deleted, and is important to keep a copy of. It could be troubleshooting tips for specific tech issues, things that may be under threat of takedown, or maybe just an article I like and want a local copy of. It's a wonderful tool.
