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'm looking to replace the log book at work. I thought somebody must have made a simple docker container that allows someone to put in entries into a database for things like daily activities, guest logs, maybe even tracking fuel deliveries. Is there anything out there or and I going to need to remember how to make websites? Is been at least a decade.

I'm open to any other cloud solution as well.

Does a text file not suffice?

[–] johnnixon@rammy.site 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A fair question. The goal is to have a dozen different people able to input information. It should have some metadata so I can filter by every type (guest log, significant event, employee late to work, delivery, etc). A flat text file wouldn't do that. Plus it needs to be pretty idiot proof for the non savvy users.

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 1 points 1 year ago

It would if employees could follow a specific format, but that's a policy thing, I guess. Eg.:

[001] guest <guestname> arrived
[025] event of type 025 happened
...

etc.

While I now have to assume git is out of the question, something like Cryptpad might work.
