// COMPARISONS
3 Git forges Moving your Git repositories off GitHub: two forges you run yourself and one hosted by a non-profit, compared on CI, packages, code review and governance. PaaS and hosting panels Running your apps on your own server, Heroku-style or cPanel-style: three tools compared on what they install, the access they take and their paid tiers. Status pages and uptime monitoring Watching your services and publishing their status without a SaaS: six open-source tools compared on database, checks, status page and project health.
// ENTRIES

Mattermost
Slack-style team chat you host yourself, written in Go on PostgreSQL. What its two free editions keep, what the paid plans hold back, and how it is licensed.
restic
Encrypted, deduplicated backups to storage you don't trust: local disk, SFTP, S3, rest-server or rclone. One Go binary, with no built-in scheduler or GUI.
Plakar
Back up files, databases and Kubernetes clusters to one encrypted, deduplicated store you can browse without restoring. Scheduling is left to cron or systemd.
Traefik Manager
Add Traefik routes and middlewares from a browser: a self-hosted UI merges each change into your file provider YAML, keeps comments, and backs up every write.
Trippy
Find the hop where packets get lost: traceroute and ping merged into one terminal UI, with ICMP, UDP or TCP probes and ECMP paths traced one flow at a time.
CheckCle
Watch sites, servers and SSL certificates from one container that needs no separate database. A young PocketBase project with no release since September 2025.
netboot.xyz
One USB stick or PXE entry to install Linux, boot a live distro or repair a disk, from an iPXE menu that downloads each kernel and initrd at boot time.
Cachet
Tell customers about outages and planned maintenance: a self-hosted PHP status page fed by its API or by your monitoring tools. Where its license and v3 stand.
Gatus
Uptime monitoring declared in versioned YAML: a self-hosted status page with HTTP, DNS, TCP and ICMP checks, conditions on each response, and built-in alerts.
Openship
Deploy apps to your own server from GitHub: builds, domains and TLS handled, driven from a desktop app, web dashboard or CLI. A 0.x project launched in 2026.
Yopass
Get a password or file to someone without it sitting in Slack or email: the browser encrypts it with OpenPGP and the self-hosted server stores only ciphertext.
Checkmate
Know when a site stops answering or a disk fills up: self-hosted monitoring backed by MongoDB, with an agent on each server and public status pages, under AGPL.
Gogs
Host your Git repositories from a single Go binary and SQLite, even on a Raspberry Pi. The forge Gitea was forked from, with rare, mostly security-fix releases.
Databasus
Scheduled PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB and MongoDB backups run from a web UI, sent to S3, SFTP or Google Drive. Physical backups and PITR need PostgreSQL 17+.
Fleet
Manage Macs, Windows PCs, Linux hosts and phones from one self-hosted server: MDM, osquery SQL queries, config in Git. Remote wipe and CIS checks are paid.
OpenPanel
Each hosting account runs in its own containers: a cPanel-style control panel, free for up to 3 accounts, with a paid license required to resell hosting.
Gitea
Repos, code review, CI and packages on your own server: an MIT-licensed Git forge in Go, governed jointly with Gitea Ltd, which keeps SAML for its paid edition.
Coolify
Deploy apps, databases and services to servers you own, Heroku-style and open source. Coolify Cloud, from $5 a month, hosts only the dashboard, not your apps.
OneUptime
Uptime checks, on-call, status pages, logs and traces in-house: what self-hosting takes (three databases, 16 GB of RAM recommended) and what stays paid.
Uptime Kuma
Get alerted when a service goes down and show it on a status page: MIT-licensed self-hosted monitoring with HTTP, DNS and database checks on a single instance.
