Self-hosting services has been a life-changer. And I thank this community for helping me a lot recently. Not only did I learn a lot more about linux, network and docker, but it helped me understand better how platforms and advertising just f*cked up the internet I grew up with.

But I wonder: do any of you hate how self-hosting services like photo- or document-management systems, or even a simple rss tool, forces you to sort your stuff out, and put your decades old files in order?!

I’m in the process of migrating my web browser bookmarks to linkding because it’s a GREAT tool. But I have like 2k websites to manualy check wether they’re still there, wonder at how cool they still are, tag properly and archive with SingleFile!

And that’s just ONE service…

    I know there is all of that AI hate, which i’m all for. But taking models to run locally does not benefit the AI companies. If anything this is the way to make something that is actually good out of that hot mess.

      You’re right, but I’d need a graphic card < money.tar.gzip

        I used phi3:mini-4k for tagging all my bookmarks and don’t think it was any worse than a big model for that kind of job. It will run on a 10 year old cpu and a few gb of ram. (note: ai tagging of bookmarks isn’t that great, regardless, but it helps with search).

        Yeah, personally I just looked for second hand high vram gpus and waited. I got 2 titan Xp (12gb vram) for only $180 each.
