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.

I would like to run code-server but i don't like the idea of trackers hence codium. I found this old reddit thread but it wasn't particularly helpful.

Happy to be corrected but I think code server doesn’t use the exact vscode build from microsoft

And I think the trackers you are (rightly) concerned about aren’t in code server but they have their own equivalent. You can disable the telemetry though
