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.

I have soo many memes I've grabbed over the years, as I don't want to be tied to a platform, I'm struggling to manage them. I've previously auto-uploaded them to Nextcloud, but this makes for bad viewing. I use Immich for photos I take, but I don't want memes mixed in with those. Ideally I'd like to have memes available on my clipboard for easy replies, but that's extra.

If anyone has any suggestions for meme-management solutions, I'd love to hear them, thanks!

Immich, but a separated library.

Do you like... Get a drink and sit back and watch a slide show of classic memes and reflect on the simpler times?

Not OP, and haven't done that (yet), but I think we really all should.

I've seen this idea floated before a few times, and it's a thought I've had before myself--some sort of self-hosted version of gify. AFAIK nothing exists as of writing, but I've seen this idea crop up enough times that maybe there's a demand for this sort of thing.

Personally, I just have a well-organized meme folder that I sync between my client devices with syncthing, but something a little more integrated and easier to search might be fun.

Not sure what your exact requirements are, but these three should work great as simple upload and share embed link type servers :0

Lychee: My personal choice even for my entire photo library since I just like things to be simple

Pellicola: Self discribed as "Pastebin for your photos"

Media Goblin: Lets you view more then just photos, might replace my lychee for non-photography use

Have you looked at the memories app in nextcloud? Much better for image viewing

https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/index.html is a file-management application written for internet-fluent media nerds who have large file collections. It browses with tags instead of folders […]

I've found tagging is crucial for images of any kind.

Then any app that supports tagging can easily find things by your tags.
