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.
For Example
We welcome posts that include suggestions for good self-hosted alternatives to popular online services, how they are better, or how they give back control of your data. Also include hints and tips for less technical readers.

Password manager. While some may cache on your client devices, by and large if your server goes down, no passwords.
Not necesarily. If you self host SyncThing and use it to synchronise your password database across devices (for example KeePassXC's .kdbx file) only the synchronisation goes down with your server.
Same with Bit/vaultwarden, all clients grab a copy of the vault from the server when they sync so if the server is offline all clients still "just work".
