Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Anyone else using this to bypass those pesky paywalls? It’s working great for me using the docker container.

It says this is inspired by 13ft Ladder, which is also self hosted. What's the difference between the two?

[–] BarrierWithAshes@kbin.social 20 points 10 months ago

Well Ladder is written in Go. 13ft is written in Python.

I too would like to know the difference between the two.

About 1 foot? 😁

I'll see myself out...

13ft Ladder is twice as expensive as this solution.

As someone that's never used any of those services, what's the difference between this and bypass paywalls clean?

[–] krellor@kbin.social 7 points 10 months ago

Thanks for posting. I just deployed to my container host in AWS ECS and it's working well in my testing. Very easy deployment with docker.

Terrible choice of name, ladder is the name of a popular programming language for industrial automation, googling it would be a nightmare

My first thought was " Who has a PLC in their home?".

Why would you want to remove CORS headers? Won't that break a bunch of things?

No CORS headers means your browser can't request the content if it's on a different domain. That doesn't seem useful to me? Maybe I'm missing something.

Oh, I assumed you could replace them. If it's just remove, you're 100% right.
