Hey, community :)

I run a website that showcases the best open-source companies. Recently, I’ve added a new feature that filters self-hosted tools and presents them in a searchable format. Although there are other options available, like Awesome-Selfhosted, I found it difficult to find what I needed there, so I decided to display the information in a more digestible format.

You can check out the list here: https://openalternative.co/self-hosted

Let me know if there’s anything else I should add to the list.

Thanks!

    I wish more software wasn’t “hosted” these days.

    I miss app ass apps.

    Don’t mind me. I’m just feeling old.

      I mean this lemmy is for self hosting apps. Not sure what you were expecting to come across lol. If you don’t have a Nas or server or dedicated host computer you’re probably not gonna enjoy anything in this lemmy

      Hosted apps means you can use them on multiple devices. Otherwise, I have to wait until I get home, power up my laptop, wait for the OS to boot, wait for the app to load, then do the thing I wanted to do.

      Any thoughts on how to solve the data sync problem without hosting? I guess I remember some apps doing a local network sync to get data to multiple devices. I kinda remember having problems with that not working all the time…
