etherpad/etherpad:latestWhy Self-Host Etherpad?
Self-hosting Etherpad gives you full control over your data and infrastructure. With TinyPod, you can deploy Etherpad to your own server in seconds — no Docker knowledge or server management required.
Etherpad is an open-source productivity tool that you can run on your own hardware. Unlike managed SaaS alternatives, self-hosting means your data stays on your server, you control updates and access, and there are no per-user fees or vendor lock-in.
