Only speaking for myself...
OwnCloud - I just don't trust an American company to host my data. Now, is my small UK based host as likely to be as effective at protecting my data as DropBox? Maybe not - but they don't have a proponent of torture on their board, so it's swings and roundabouts.
TT-RSS - I couldn't find a decent RSS manager which I liked. TT does the job - and I'm not worried that someone will decide that Google+ is better and force me off.
Ampache - all of my music is stored as FLAC, which can be a PITA to transcode and/or stream. This sits on a box at home and I can listen to my music wherever I am. I'm not reliant on a corporation who might decide that my music isn't licensed correctly, or they don't want to support my hardware, etc.
Personally I use WordPress rather than Ghost - it's more flexible for my needs.
- jancborchardt 11y agoSince you already use ownCloud, you might want to check out the News app: https://apps.owncloud.com/content/show.php/News?content=168040 https://apps.owncloud.com/content/show.php/News?content=1680... It’s pretty cool, basically like TT-RSS but it looks more modern and is integrated in ownCloud. There are also apps for almost all platforms, like apps for Android & iOS which download all articles (and even podcasts) for offline reading.
- edent 11y agoOooh! I've been looking for a good PodCatcher. Thanks.

- JustSomeNobody 11y agoNot sure why you're getting downvoted. Surely it isn't bad to say you don't trust American companies. I live here and I don't trust them all.
