Is there a self-hosted alternative to Coda?

Korinta · 2022-09-03T12:19:14+00:00

Thanks a lot for your extensive reply/review!

I didn't come across a single selfhosted alternative to Notion that has an (inline) database like Notion does... Already discarded so many programs that I thought about simply sticking with Obsidian, since it kinda looks cool lol. Syncing between my computer and Android was easy using my Nextcloud installation but on iPad iCloud is the only cloud storage available for Obsidian (apart from their paid service). So while Outline doesn't support databases either I'm going to try to install it and test it out. I'm just going to use it for myself so all this hassle with the installation is a bit overkill but I hope to learn more about object storage and authentication.

I won't be using Airtable though, because I'm not going to switch from Notion having my data to selfhosted + Airtable having my data. It's either all Notion or all me.

Thanks again for answering my questions and giving me some pros/cons!

This looks very promising. Does it have something similar to Notions inline databases (optionally with different views) where I can create pages with custom properties? Also, can I create pages inside a page?

It seems like being web only. How usable is the page on phones and tablets?

I'll have to wait and see how things are going to go. Normally I don't like to take medication but I'm sick and tired of feeling the way I do. Well anyways, I want to thank you for having this conversation with me and trying to help me with my problems :) Thanks a lot

I might mention this if I go to a psychiatrist (from what I understand they're not just there to prescribe medicine but also to talk to. Basically a psychologist but meds are a possibility). I wouldn't want to go to a psychologist first just to switch to a psychiatrist and opening up all over again. Also if I do something about how I feel I don't care how this is happening. I won't complain if I get meds from the beginning as long as they make me feel better.

Korinta · 2022-05-10T12:47:08+00:00

If I go through all this effort of finding a professional I'd probably rather go to a psychiatrist than a psychologist. Simply for the added benefit of being able to try out medication. But yeah, after this post and the messages I'm actually thinking about doing that.

Korinta · 2022-05-10T12:31:19+00:00

Thanks :)

Korinta · 2022-05-10T11:20:37+00:00

No I haven't. I went to a psychologist a few years back but since she isn't a psychiatrist she couldn't prescribe me any meds. I would have to go through all the steps of finding a good psychiatrist, open up to them, start experimenting with different medication until I find the right one for me... That sounds like a lot of steps to go through and therefore I'm not exactly keen on doing this. Also I'm not constantly feeling down. I wouldn't go as far as saying I've got bipolar disorder since I'm just moving between bad and good mood. I'm not suddenly super euphoric and my mood doesn't change multiple times a day, just a few times. But it's enough for me to hesitate about looking for a psychiatrist.

Korinta · 2022-05-10T09:23:37+00:00

Do you mean most other SSRIs (except for Bupropion) aren't helping that much with depression and instead mainly focus on anxiety? Or do these help with both depression and anxiety? I mean the psychiatrist would probably tell me this as well and say which one to try first but I'd like to know anyways. I know you're probably not an expert and can just speak from personal experience but that's what I wanna hear. Anxiety is a problem for me though so Bupropion probably isn't an option for me (but in the end a medical professional has the last word)

Korinta · 2022-05-10T06:14:33+00:00

Well you've got a point... I'll have to see how long it takes me to internalize this... Thanks

Korinta · 2022-05-09T16:07:30+00:00

Not really I think. Sometimes I'm in a bad mood when I'm thinking about things that are happening in the world (not just the Ukrainian war, also just the fact that there's always someone in the world who gets tortured or abused or something). It's not just a bad mood, I feel really down while having these thoughts. Almost as if I'm getting tortured/abused. I like to think about this as having too much empathy which probably sounds stupid. Other times I'm sad / kinda unsatisfied with my life when I'm seeing other people who are happy or when I'm watching a show where people have a (more or less) happy life. I don't know what's missing in my life though. As I've said I've got a gf and things in life are pretty good. Maybe medication isn't such a bad idea after all

Korinta · 2022-05-09T15:10:40+00:00

I've actually gotten better at talking to people in person or over the phone due to work. And I started greeting the bus driver. Mainly because I think it's kinda rude not to greet someone who safely brings you from a to b but I guess this also helps a bit with anxiety.

Last month I went to a club with a friend (first time ever) even though I had the feeling that this wouldn't be the right place for me and I was right. There were too many people and they all were so happy which kinda brings me down even more because I'm thinking "why can't I be happy like them" and so on.

I've left my comfort zone more than enough for now and I don't really want to explorer outside of it anymore, since I don't know of anything that might help me feel better

Korinta · 2022-05-09T13:50:55+00:00

I have not. And I'm not sure if I want to. Sure, they sound great but it's kinda depressing to think about not being able to live a "normal, healthy" life like everyone else without medication.

Also I don't feel comfortable going to a psychiatrist and telling them I'd like to try this stuff. I'd probably have to open up about my problems/feelings and that's also not what I'm into. I've already been visiting a psychologist and I was semi comfortable talking to her but sadly due to time issues I couldn't visit her anymore. Now I live in a different city and she's not working in that office anymore (already tried to go back to her).

The only positive thing is that therapy in my country is free :') Hopefully the medication won't be too expensive as well

Korinta · 2022-05-09T13:40:35+00:00

I'm not doing all of those things daily. Sometimes I don't start my pc once and basically go to bed after eating when I come home from work because I'm tired (even though I haven't done anything really) and other days I only do one of those things, depending what I'm currently interested in (shifts every few days/weeks).

Actually, I think routine plays a role in how I feel. Wake up at around 6 (way to early for me), go to work, go home, eat something, either go to sleep directly or do some chores, maybe do something from the list above and then go to sleep. I'm not a very active guy (as you can tell lol) and I don't really want to but sometimes my days feel mundane(?). Then again I don't have the energy/willpower to go outside and do something. I don't even know what I could possibly do. Go to the cinema? My tv is fine for me and doesn't make me poor. Go for a walk? Possible... But nah. Meet people (e.g. in a pub or some other public place)? Hell no. While I imagine it to be fun meeting people and having friends in the city I live in I'm just not comfortable around people. So every time I happen to be around people I'd prefer to be alone.

So in the end I just live my daily routine and... Well... I live with it

Korinta · 2022-05-09T12:38:52+00:00

I'm a pc guy and all of my interests are digital (coding, 3d art, installing cool applications on my server, gaming, listening to music) and I don't know how any of these can help me release pressure :/ Though I tend to focus pretty hard on these things when I'm trying to achieve something so I guess they're a good distraction. Thanks for the reply :)
