https://communityhub.strava.com/insider-journal-9/an-update-to-our-developer-program-13428

The gist of it is that Strava just killed its free API, and will now require developers to have a subscription.

At Strava, we care deeply about developers, and the health of the developer ecosystem. There are now 241,000 Strava API developers, up from 185,000 last year. Starting today, all current and future applications will automatically receive access to the Standard developer tier. This allows you to serve up to 10 athletes and start building immediately, completely eliminating the previous queue.

This essentially kills thousands of tools people build using the free API.

If you're looking to move away from Strava, so far I've found two open source alternatives:

• CubeTrek - Open-source GPS track manager with 3D topography visualization for outdoor activities.
• Endurain - Self-hosted fitness tracking service for running, cycling, and more with full data control.

don't think it's me, although https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/freedns.afraid.org says it is, tried it via tor, same thing - connection times out but weirdly. anyone in the know?

my registered subdomains work fine. tried searching got back nada.

edit: thanks everyone, guess it's me although I can't figure out what the issue is - pihole doesn't block it (tried without it), tried it with ublock disabled, tor browser, different devices, browsers - same same

edit2: thanks again everyone, you don't need to check if it's working. apparently I'm blocked from accessing the site, can't see any other explanation. DNS resolves fine, flushed caches, tried private mode, clear cookies, tried everything on my end to rule stuff out, nothing

We want a new door bell and we will even be able to run new wires (currently we only have 2 Wires). I would like to have video and 2 way audio locally hosted, though the most important thing is, that the base functionality (door bell button with connected wireless door chimes through the house) needs to be absolutely reliable (no random connectivity issues).

I have found the Acuvox R20A, which is seems to have all the bells and whistles about SIP (audio and video) calls. Though from its documentation it seems, that bell chimes also must use SIP, making it more depending on my network infrastructure and the self hosted SIP server (like Asterisk). I don't see a possibility to trigger a relay on button press for triggering traditional door chimes. Which is a shame, since that would be the most reliable for this basic functionality

Do you have good ideas on how to go with this? Or does it make sense, to break this up and use a more basic door bell, while also adding camera and audio additionally as separate devices?

Hey r/selfhosted 👋 I'm the founder of Refearnapp, an affiliate tracking platform that you can self-host on your own infrastructure. I wanted to share why I went the self-hosted route and why it might matter to you if you're running any kind of referral or affiliate program.

Why self-hosting affiliate tracking specifically? Most affiliate/referral SaaS tools charge per-click, per-conversion, or a % of revenue. When you're scaling, that gets expensive fast. With self-hosting, you pay once (or just for your server) and that's it — no surprise invoices tied to your growth.

What you actually own Your data stays on your server. Conversion events, affiliate emails, payout history — none of it goes to a third-party analytics pipeline you don't control. No vendor lock-in. If Refearnapp (or any SaaS alternative) shuts down tomorrow, you still have everything running and your data intact. Custom integrations are actually possible. Access the DB directly, hook into your own webhooks, plug into internal tools — things that are impossible or heavily restricted on closed SaaS platforms. GDPR / compliance is simpler. When your users ask "where is my data?", the answer is literally your own server. Much easier to manage than coordinating with a third-party processor. The tradeoff (being honest) Self-hosting means you're responsible for uptime, updates, and backups. It's not for everyone. But if you're already comfortable running a VPS and a Docker container or two, the setup is straightforward.

Who it's for If you run an indie product, a SaaS, or an e-commerce store and want to run affiliate/referral programs without handing over your conversion data to yet another third party — this is built for you.

Happy to answer questions about the tech stack, setup, or the reasoning behind going self-hosted. What do you all look for when evaluating self-hosted tools like this?

Check what can you use and at what rate of token per seconds would it be... It has examples of many models and quantization levels. Huge resource!

When Immich originally joined FUTO two years ago, the news was received with a healthy level of skepticism. Who was FUTO? Why did they want to "acquire" Immich? Did this mean the beginning of the end for the product? Well, it's been almost two years now and we thought it would be fun to have a little retrospective on how things have played out since then.

I wanted a quick local way to review my own Docker Compose stacks before assuming a service was private, behind a reverse proxy, or only bound to localhost.

ExposeMap is a small open-source CLI that reads a docker-compose.yml file and reports exposure hints: internal, localhost-only, directly exposed from Compose config, reverse-proxy exposed, or unknown.

It generates a Markdown report and Mermaid diagram. It checks common port mappings, localhost bindings, Traefik-style labels, likely reverse proxy services, and risky directly published database/admin ports.

Important limitation: it does not prove internet reachability, run network scans, connect to containers, modify Compose files, inspect secrets, or upload anything.

I'm especially looking for sanitized Compose edge cases where the classification is misleading or the wording should be clearer.

Hi Folks,

I've used Ticktick as a SaaS task manager app for years now. There was a time when I had tried almost every productivity app under the sun and Ticktick had the best features and app and a WAY better pricing structure than alternatives like Todoist. Nevertheless, I had growing concerns about privacy and control of my own data as I need to be able to trust my to-do app with information about my life that I don't want repeated to every advertiser on the internet. Bearing in mind the state of the internet in general, I've been slowly cutting away all my SaaS dependencies and it may be close to time for me to say goodby to an app that kept me sane for over a decade of my life. I'd like to move to a self-hosted solution, first for myself and eventually I'll migrate my family to a shared project on the new solution.

What do you use to stay organized? Why do you like it?

Can you recommend something for my needs?

• Some sort of custom lists logic where I can filter with some sort of typed or gui-button filter to see and save specific views of my tasks/cards, for example "overdue+project:yard+tag:do_it_later"

• Must be source available, but I prefer open-source especially the less shareware-y less crippled versions. There's a lot of subscription/shareware/FOSS+sub kind of stuff in this space and I'd rather use whatever the neckbeard & fedora FOSS purists use.

• I'm mostly used to the getting things done (GTD) methodology with task managers that use lists, but I am not opposed to using a tool that uses Kanban boards or something else.

• I'm partial to something that I can grow into (more of a accessible but powerful project management tool and less of a simple todo app) but I only need to account for 2-3 users and a few thousand tasks a year with minimal media attachments.

• I prefer something I can deploy via docker though I wouldn't completely rule out a bare-metal install if the feature set justified it.

• Must have support for recurring tasks natively or via a plugin.

• Bonus points for native android(graphene)/ios apps, but access via webapp is acceptable

  I've tried a lot of the NextCloud based solutions. I've tried Vikunja (which is pretty good and AGPL), and I'm currently messing with Planka which is good, but isn't open-source which really isn't where I'm trying to go with this. Kanboard is under the MIT license, but seems to have a steeper learning curve.

I'm looking forward to hearing what the community uses!

Hi all,

I want to spin up a small home server. Nothing crazy, maybe 4 or 8GB ram at most. 1 Docker instance running a few privacy frontends (Invidious, Redlib, Xcancel, SearxNG, etc.) and split tunneling VPN connections for each one.

Obviously, a Raspberry Pi 4 or higher is the internet's favorite choice, but I don't need wireless connectivity, I just need a single HDMI and 2 USB ports to get everything set up, one ethernet port, and a dream in my heart.

Has anyone use alternatives like Le Potato or Orange Pi? I'm curious what their community support is like, and if there's a FOSS-friendly standard.

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I have been working on this project for quite some time, and I have decided to open source it.

I originally started building Reloops because I wanted something that provided more value than a traditional file review process.

Reloops is an open-source creative asset workspace / DAM for teams and AI agents.

It helps teams organize creative assets, generate AI descriptions and tags, manage versions, collect approvals, share collections, and let agents work inside the media library.

Core Functionality

• Multiple workspaces with branding support
• Team member invites and collaboration
• Branded asset collections
• Metadata-powered search across the entire workspace
• Automatic metadata generation during file upload
• Folders and nested folders
• AI-generated tags and descriptions
• Client review and approval workflows
• Annotations and commenting for PDFs, videos, images, and website screenshots
• Login-free guest reviews
• Kanban-style project workflows
• Side-by-side version comparison for different files
• In-app and email notifications for file uploads, mentions, and when AI-generated tags and descriptions are ready
• API keys for agents to find assets, upload/download files, create share links, and pick up assigned work
• Customizable workflows for OpenClaw and other AI integrations such as n8n
• Mobile device and social media previews for short-form videos

Reloops is an open-source alternative to Frame .io, Bynder, Canto, Brandfolder, Dropbox Replay, Ziflow, Filestage, Google Drive, Airtable**, and internal DAM tools.

I have also added Docker installation support.

Affiliation up front: I built this, the data is open (CC BY 4.0), no signup, not selling anything.

What pushed me to make it: when you're choosing the box your self-hosted services run on 24/7, the number that decides the power bill is measured idle watts, and nobody prints it. Spec sheets list TDP, which is a thermal rating for sizing a cooler, not actual draw. The same Dell OptiPlex Micro chassis idles around 11W with a 35W-TDP "T" chip vs around 18W with a 65W-TDP desktop chip, and at roughly $1/W/year (US) or $2.50/W/year (EU) that gap adds up over the life of an always-on server.

So I aggregated 51 boxes into one filterable table built around the facts that actually decide a self-host box: measured idle (wall-metered, with the method noted), the 2.5GbE chipset (i226-V is fine, i225-V has the documented random-dropout bug that takes a headless box offline until a hard reset), ECC support, RAM ceiling, and IOMMU / GPU-passthrough notes for anyone running VMs. Every field is cited to a dated source or left blank, never guessed.

Finder: https://idlewatt.vercel.app/ Open dataset (CC BY, pull it or send corrections / new wall-meter readings as PRs): https://github.com/SolvoHQ/homelab-mini-pc-dataset

What are you running your stack on, and does anyone have measured-idle numbers for a box I'm missing?

GloriaFood has been a popular choice for restaurant online ordering, but many businesses rely heavily on it for daily operations.

If it ever shuts down, what alternatives would actually work? Let’s discuss options people are using today.

Hi everyone,

I’m one of the maintainers of Portabase. I already shared the project here recently, but we have a major update: REST API is now available!

Repository: https://github.com/Portabase/portabase

This is still a first version and it will be extended over the coming weeks.

Since this was requested by the community, the goal is to make Portabase easier to integrate into automation workflows, CI pipelines, n8n scenarios, and other external tools.

Swagger with OpenAPI documentation is also available: https://portabase.io/docs/dashboard/api/introduction

This should make it easier to explore the available endpoints and start testing.

Quick recap for those who do not know the project yet: Portabase is an open-source platform for database backup and restore, built on an agent-based architecture with one central server and lightweight agents deployed next to your databases.

We now support 9 databases:

• PostgreSQL
• MariaDB and MySQL
• SQLite
• MongoDB
• Redis and Valkey
• Firebird SQL
• Microsoft SQL Server

As always, feedback is very welcome. Feel free to open an issue if you find a bug or have suggestions.

I seriously can't believe how much progress he's made for the FOSS community. He actually might take a bite out of the big 3's profits with this

Today I randomly felt on this release note, mentioning an RCE “under certain conditions “

Digging up a bit, it’s a full blown RCE on any default install. Worst, unless you were aware of the /storybook path, it’s very unlikely you blocked it.

I also wrote a small POC here https://gist.github.com/Calyhre/67337024ece3762cbc3c9e4956b0e3d4

If you are using Plausible 3.0.0 until 3.2.0 included, you should upgrade ASAP, and rotate everything

So today after almost a year of learning what self hosting and what a nas and raid configuration was, I was to get a used hp prodesk 600 g6 mini and install zimaos on it. Zimaos really made things a lot simpler than I thought it was going to be. I was easily able to install portainer and immich and it wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be.

I’ve actually made a goal now to use this for me to get used to it and since I already have a list of what I would like to self hosting for my parents as well as for myself, I’m going to take this as an opportunity to try to set everything up so I’m comfortable with it and when I’m ready to buy a nas for my parents and set it up for them, it won’t be hard. I will also learn how to do remote access and how to do it safely and maybe even try out different nas os to see which one I’m comfortable/like more.

Anyway I just wanted to say that I’m happy to be deep diving and this and can’t wait to learn and host more!!

How do you monitor your homelab network for internal attackers? E.g. you have a publicly available service and theres a vulnerability that you miss or you pull a bad update and suddenly someone has access to your VM/machine/container. How could you increase the chances of automatically detecting that?

The built in IDS in opnsense seems pretty useless, and doesn't really help detect if e.g. someone is trying to exploit services between your vlans (I could be using it wrong though).

Crowdsec in opnsense is nice but it seems to also be primarily for protecting from malicious actors coming from the WAN.

I've heard about the opnsense zenarmor plugin but you have to agree to a privacy policy to use it?

Another option I guess would be collecting firewall logs and making custom notifications for things that you think would be suspicious on your network.

I also know update cooldowns and not exposing anything could largely solve this too, but the monitoring and alerting question really interests me.

Has anyone migrated from CasaOS to ZimaOS?

Is it worth the migration? It seems like a lot of work, and maybe going in a more commercialized direction that I don't like.

Curious what other people's thoughts/experiences are.

I can finally set this partially aside for a little while. v1.0.0 is now available.

Cliparr is a self-hosted media-clipper that runs *mostly * in your browser to quickly and easily create clips from your personal media. Whether it's Jellyfin, Plex, or a local video, you can jump in and quickly export a clip in a variety of file types and resolutions.

To use it, you would do something like:

• Watch a video on Jellyfin, pause at something funny.
• Open Cliparr and click "Edit Clip"
• The clip will begin exactly where you paused. Trim to your desired length.
• Customize subtitles, if you desire.
• Click "Export".

Like I shared a week ago, you will then have something like this

Check out the new website and docs at https://cliparr.dev/ The repo is available here: https://github.com/TechSquidTV/Cliparr

I'll shamelessly ask you to please share! I can not post on that other site, try as I might.

I am switching to Databasus for backing up my databases. Postgres has been fine but on two separate mariadb databases, Databasus cannot create read only users. Everything is on docker compose on separate stacks with a bridge network backup-db between the database containers and Databasus.

I think the problem is that the normal user only has permission for the single database but not universal, so have something I can try but I can't seem to actually login to the databases with the root passwords set in .env a long time ago (along with the normal user / pw which seen to be used fine by the apps). My Nextcloud database is one of the issues. The root PW env variable is the one taken from there database documentation.

Trying to access through "docker exec -it <db_container_name> mariadb -u root -p"

I have already tried setting the -h flag as localhost, 127.0.0.1, <db_container_name> and <nextcloud_app_container_name>.

I tried changing the root PW too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Synology is for work files, photos, Unifi, and a few other misc items. Right now Unraid is just for Jellyfin w/ Tailscale access. Homeassistnat literally just runs a dashboard and a few lights + plugs but I mostly went back to wyze for that. Raspiblitz is for bitcoin node and lightning.

Sometimes I think I should consolidate but it's a daunting idea so for now I'm running them all.

Hey folks! I know a while back there was a kerfuffle because syncthing-fork for Android went dark, and then a new person showed up and claimed everything was cool and they'd been privately given the keys or something, and people were concerned. I pinned my fdroid version to the at-that-time-current release until we got clarity.

Well, it's been a while and I just noticed I'm still on that old release. So... how'd it turn out? Do we like the new person yet? Is there a promising fork y'all are using? Or is the project dead? I'm sure I could just go look at the repo, but I'm also sure the repo would tell me "yeah, we're all cool" no matter what, so I'm curious what the community feelings are. Have there even been any useful new releases since then?

Thanks!
