Selfhosted

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.

Personally I’m running Foundry and have been meaning to spin up Owlbear 1.0 now that it’s self hostable - but I feel like there’s more i could be doing. Is anyone aware of a self hostable character sheet/character builder? I suppose i could go next cloud for storing folders and files but I don’t think anyone would use it - what self hosted services are you using at your tables?

Not really the topic, but why do you want to run owlbear alongside foundry? It seems like a slimmer alternative rather than something to use in conjunction.

To actually answer the title post I just run foundryvtt and I have a bunch of RPG manuals backed up in Nextcloud so I guess that too

Two reasons: Foundry has been feeling more and more bloated and still doesn’t work well on tablets or mobile, while Owlbear does; and Foundry doesn’t like to play nicely with closest tunnels, and owlbear does from what I understand.

That's fair. I can't say it feels more bloated to me, but the tablet/mobile issue is definitely a big one if relevant for your players.

Do you run Foundry in Docker? Where does Foundry not play nice?

I've run Foundry + CloudFlared in Docker with 0 issues for some time.
