I ended up on Piwigo. It’s pretty fully featured and allows you to set up access controls for groups. Also has client apps.

These are fully stand alone. Downloadable. So not strictly hosted I guess?

Does it need to be “hosted”?

I like both these:

yEd (https://www.yworks.com/products/yed)

Dia Diagrams (http://dia-installer.de)

I think yEd had a free version but closed source.

I secretly moved a bank of high school lockers about 1ft per day, every school day, for a whole year.

They were pretty light - those steel “backpack only” sized lockers in a about a 3x4 arrangement. Some days I’d just lean on the end of them to nudge them over, but skipping doorways and around corners meant extra planning and often meant I had to come in to school early.

The janitor caught me one morning. He agreed it was a funny prank and offered to help when we got to the staircase.

By the end of the year the lockers had migrated up one floor and over to a separate building.

I kept the secret for decades and only recently started telling the story.

There’s a very familiar and comforting writing style and tempo to these old magazines. Articles that feel like they were written by some kid hired from a BBS.

Definitely a feel that’s missing from modern blogs and computing or gaming news sites.

I love all these old Internet Archive scans. Very glad that these have been preserved.

Thanks.

You might find some starting points or even projects or terms to look for in this article:

This worked well for me and it gave me a spreadsheet (.csv) of my posts and comments.

You just go to the linked page, drag the “button” up to your bookmarks bar. Then navigate to your reddit profile and click the bookmark let, select your options and “go” - then wait.

Mine took about 15 minute to scrub 10 years and about 2000 comments. It missed a few so I manually edited and then deleted those.

Take note… I’ve heard (anecdotally), if you want your history backup, do not interrupt the process or close the window.
