self-hosted VS self-hosted

You can fully self host it (server and everything): https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted

This is for folks that want a self-governed / "no big brother" Discord alternative, it's quite nice for that purpose, but it's lacking the Discord integrations (audio chat, etc.) that make it better for gamers.

Revolt looks interesting. I see they have a self-hosted repo too with docker images.

Have you checked out Revolt? https://revolt.chat/ I think you can self-host this one https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted

Everyone can host a Revolt instance as it's open source (the developers even published a script for Docker to make things easier), so you can even own and host a server. However, the official server is managed and owned by team members (and the main server is hosted in Germany, while media server is hosted in Lithuania according to the privacy policy).

Revolt aims to be an open source Discord alternative, looks like it would fit your use case

Not familiar but they seem to allow self hosting: https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted

I'm having the same problem! Saw someone opened this issue so hopefully we get a response soon.

This is the point where I will point out that you can self-host Sentry free of charge :) https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/

Sentry can be self hosted: https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/

The people we're concerned about are not the hundreds of thousands of Sentry users, including those that self-host.

We're concerned about people who have taken the software for the purposes of competing directly against us, that hinders our ability to monetize the work. Monetizing the work helps us continue improving the software and distribute it for free use, benefitting those aforementioned real users (e.g. https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted).

> I mean no slander or disrespect to anyone involved, but there was a DataDog alternative posted sometime in the last few weeks that had a docker-compose with like 15 containers in it.

Reminds me of Sentry: https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/

This is their example docker-compose for self-hosting: https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/master/docker-...

It has:

> What should people use?

I recall Apache Skywalking being pretty good, especially for smaller/medium scale projects: https://skywalking.apache.org/

The architecture is simple, the performance is adequate, it doesn't make you spend days configuring it and it even supports various different data stores: https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/main/v9.0.0/en/setup/back...

The problems with it are that it isn't super popular (although has agents for most popular stacks), the docs could be slightly better and I recall them also working on a new UI so there is a little bit of churn: https://skywalking.apache.org/downloads/

Still better versus some of the other options when you need something that just works instead of spending a lot of time configuring something (even when that something might be superior in regards to the features): https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/master/docker-...

Sentry is just the first thing that comes to mind (OpenTelemetry also isn't simpler due to how much it tries to do), but compare its complexity to Skywalking: https://github.com/apache/skywalking/blob/master/docker/dock...

I wish there was more self-hosted software like that out there, enough to address certain concerns in a simple way on day 1 and leave branching out to more complex options like OpenTelemetry once you have a separate team for that and the cash is rolling in.

Sounds interesting!

Will you compare with qryn? Self-hosted sentry?

I haven't done it in years, but technically sentry is able to be self hosted https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted

yes to the second https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/23.4.0/docker-... and only after the embargo is over to the first: https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/23.4.0/LICENSE...

I also miss the "good old days" when running sentry was like 3 containers, not the 32 of modern Sentry
