Hi everybody, I wrote this piece and it might seem a little half-baked, but I’ll never get it going if I don’t throw it out there.
Let me know what you think, thanks and selfhosting ftw.
I really like the idea.
syncthing is a strong recommendation for this. Itll start manually on my host. and then simply sync my files semiautomatically whithout the need of having to run my rpi all the time especially if I still use it to experiment.
Nice, thanks for the syncthing use case.
Great idea, i really hope we see more of that type of local/selfhosting for average folks, its really the only way to save the internet from just being another corporate censorship heavy advertising platform.
There’s a use case for this but who knows how big this niche is, and ultimately that’s what will determine success or failure.
As a non technical person, I think any tool that would make local hosting easier for laypeople like myself is great! I hope everything works out for you and localhostinger becomes a thing. I particularly like the “The app store idea” version a lot!
Not sure how many services can be hosted in that way and remain useful. But it’s an interesting idea overall! For myself, I could run a Git forge on local PC. Since I’m the only user, and I just keep my scripts there, it is fine not to run 24/7.
