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.

you just load your books from Calibre (or right through USB if you’re hardcore for some reason) and you’re basically off to the races.

There's also an OPDS server option with calibre-web that you can use to load books from if you're using koreader.

You can also use the Kobo server replacement option with calibre-web although I personally couldn't get it to work at the time I tried it. But this will give you a sync option that works like the official Kobo server which is quite nice.
