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.

Discord was already succumbing to enshitification. Now with their intention to be owned by Wall Street, that trajectory will certainly accelerate at warp speed once the change of hands happens.

Anyone already get ahead of this and find a solid alternative?

Right now I'm on the fence between Element for Matrix, and Revolt. Both seem to have their pros and cons and I can't find a clear "winner".

Doesnt discord also have a max of like 25mb? Unless you pay for nitro?

It was 8mb then 25mb then 10mb now (for non-Nitro users)

[–] HappyTimeHarry@lemm.ee 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

If that, depending on the type of file sometimes its 10mb

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Yea that's what I thought, cause I've had small files get rejected recently now.

I believe it's ~100mb. I don't mind paying for more. That's not an option on Revolt.

Wait? I thought this was FOSS? Is there no settings to allow you to change the upload size of files?

Again, if you're self-hosting, yes; If you're using the default instance, no.
