    Thank you, great product, can only recommend it! I've been self-hosting it since last year to access my jellyfin home-server from the web. Set up was easy and I never had any issue…

    I finally got to rework my html form forwarder[1]. I realized how cheap SES is and thought I might as well make the service free. I hope open sourcing it could be a way for me to g…

    Show HN: Free Contact Form Forwarder

    What would the incentive be? I assume that just paying out the price for an apartment as salary would be easier for the employer and preferred by the employee. Also, apartments in …

    Nice project, I'd totally set this up for myself as social media replacement. Please let me know once your MVP is ready. My main concern would be to overwhelm recipients if they'd …

    Yes, my machine does swap quite generously. I have never noticed any slowdowns except when working with large video projects. However, I'm coming from an entry level 2015 MacBook P…
