Personally I’m running Foundry and have been meaning to spin up Owlbear 1.0 now that it’s self hostable - but I feel like there’s more i could be doing. Is anyone aware of a self hostable character sheet/character builder? I suppose i could go next cloud for storing folders and files but I don’t think anyone would use it - what self hosted services are you using at your tables?

    I run A Nextcloud instance for my group containing character sheets, maps, supplements, and PDFs of every RPG book I’ve been able to get my grubby little mitts on.

    Not really the topic, but why do you want to run owlbear alongside foundry? It seems like a slimmer alternative rather than something to use in conjunction.

    To actually answer the title post I just run foundryvtt and I have a bunch of RPG manuals backed up in Nextcloud so I guess that too

      Two reasons: Foundry has been feeling more and more bloated and still doesn’t work well on tablets or mobile, while Owlbear does; and Foundry doesn’t like to play nicely with cloudflare tunnels, and owlbear does from what I understand.

        That’s fair. I can’t say it feels more bloated to me, but the tablet/mobile issue is definitely a big one if relevant for your players.

        Do you run Foundry in Docker? Where does Foundry not play nice?

        I’ve run Foundry + CloudFlared in Docker with 0 issues for some time.

    I mostly play Vampire, Mage, Paranoia or Monster of the week, so I don’t need a full VTT, just some dice rolling and some sheet/NPC management that can integrate well with something like Discord. So I wrote my own, which then turned into a snowball of adding features, making it more generic, etc… It’s still an ongoing project, but with Foundry and others out there I don’t think anyone outside me will useine so I’ve put a lid on that and only fiddle with it when I need something for a game I’m playing.

    I have Foundry through Docker, but that’s pretty much the extent of the self host. Everything else comes through D&D Beyond. I’d love to get away from wizards, but it’s pretty damn slick.

      Oh huge fan of obsidian my ttrpg graph has like 10k notes. If it was FOSS and natively self hostable it would be perfect.
