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.

With the stories about data from period tracking apps being shared with law enforcement, I was wondering if there was a self hosted alternative I could host for my daughter. My searches so far have not returned any good results. Thanks!

I wrote a period app for my partner, everything is encrypted and never leaves the device.

It has a option where you can set false passwords, so that if you are being compelled to unlock it, it will get up fake data.

Code is open source: https://github.com/cameroncros/PrivatePeriodTracker

It may not meet your needs, but perhaps worth a look. I am open to adding features (except for ads and tracking obviously).

Texas is exactly why I wrote it. I wish my app was a waste of time and no one ever needs it :(
