Always enjoyed scrolling though these posts, figured I’d give it a go here:

Didn’t see Paperless in these comments yet. Great way to never again search for documents, bills, receipts, warranties, manuals, etc cetera ad nauseam.

Other than the obvious of being selfhosted, how does it compare to google drive for search/recall etc

I find it very useful due to its automatic assignment of various labels, categories and etc.

These assignments mean very little work for me to keep things tidy. Icrn use labels etc for filtering so it is extremely fast to find JUST the documents I want.

Paired with a small, fast duplex document scanner, it’s incredibly convenient. Almost any kind of document I get in, just gets thrown into a scanner, and then into a box - no sorting.

I installed paperless a couple of months ago, and then needed a document from it this week, for the first time. Standing at my front door, with a contractor waiting, I retrieved a contract in about ten seconds.

I will never stop using this software.

Create post

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.
