An operating system for self-hosting

https://github.com/malmoos/malmo

I saw the options out there were not fully open source, or had other limitations so I started working on this better one. Based on Debian, apps are docker containers.

I do work to adapt current open source apps, but it's so great to make them available as one click install.

I want to make it easy to run on a cloud VM or an old PC kept in the pantry. There are so many cases for self-hosting now that we need to make it easier to do

I’m working on https://gnooma.com, a lightweight tool for reducing knowledge drift in teams.

It introduces a new document type called a gnoom: a living document that knows who has read it. When the document changes, read confirmations reset, so you can see who is up to date.

I built it because important decisions kept getting buried in chats and then discussed all over again.

It’s a free beta and doesn’t require an email. Curious if anyone else has this problem. I’d also appreciate any feedback on Gnooma.

I'm working on a tool to automatically sync your work-in-progress music from your DAW (digital audio workstation, like Ableton Live, etc), to your phone. Basically a workflow tool for musicians and producers! Also has some quick share/feedback functionality too. Would love some feedback since it's still in really early stages. Already integrates with Ableton, Bitwig, Cubase, and GarageBand. https://trackid.com.

I used to work at Native Instruments, and super happy to now work on something for myself instead.

I have been working on dock bar for Linux

* https://docking.cc

* https://github.com/edumucelli/docking

It has X11 and Wayland support, pre-built packages for all major distributions, almost 60 baked in applets.

For those into Linux and using a dock bar, I am sure you will like it.
