Forget the Fediverse: Users Flood Links for Free Self-Hosted Servers, Pointing Fingers at hostux.network and Beyond
The conversation centered entirely on a resource dump: sharing numerous links to existing, free self-hosted instance providers. Concrete examples cited include hostux.network, gravitywell.xyz, and nolog.cz.
People are operating as a collective link-sharer. One participant noted the original poster was essentially soliciting a 'comprehensive list of potential examples.' Others contributed specific URLs, such as Schorsch pointing to adminforge.de, ItsAlwaysDNS sharing yourdevice.ch, and Valf dropping ladigitale.dev.
No single technology or provider emerged as authoritative. The discussion functions as a massive, decentralized bibliography of free hosting options. The fault line is simply the sheer volume of unverified links being exchanged.
