  • Looking for PDF collaboration

    Jump

  • I have an installation of Stirling PDF, but in my short experiment it had no ability to collaborate on the same document.

    Every edit created a new copy of the document downloaded to the user. The annotations weren't tagged to the individual user and sending different versions of a PDF from user to user is not what I am looking for.

    Stirling is a single user software in that regards. I haven't tested the also mentioned BentoPDF but I suspect it to be the same as it is also trying to be a PDF toolbox like Acrobat. PdfDing has a slightly different approach it might be an option if OnlyOffice does not work out.

  • I have installed OnlyOffice Community Edition and it seems to work. I need to test it with a few others over a real connection (not just locally), but it seems promising.

  • I will look into these, do you know if they support collaborative annotations?

  • You might be right.

  • Not necessary, no.

  • I tried that. It opens PDFs in Impress (their PowerPoint) and provides only a very basic annotation interface.

    I was wrong. I was using Nextcloud Office not OnlyOffice.

  • Do you really need that DDoS protection? I have been having my own webserver for decades now hosting public sites and I have only once been in the position that my server was not reachable because of a DDoS attack. And even then the attack was not targeted at my server but at my hosting provider at that time. Everything else was handled by fail2ban easily…

  • Do you rebuild your container images yourself?

    Jump

  • Almost never. I don't see any benefit .

  • what do y'all use for CI/CD?

    Jump

  • Gitlab CI/CD pipelines are my go-to tool. At work we self host an instance, for personal projects I use gitlab.com.

  • Lightweight and flexible: Bitwarden lite self-host deployment is now generally available | Bitwarden

    Jump

  • That is true for a single person - but in a multiple person household that would mean that everyone needs to carry a copy of their with them. So this mechanism is no replacement for a solid backup of the server somewhere else…

    Jump

  • The Bitwarden family plan has been one of the best expenses (if you want to call it that, because it really isn't that expensive) in our family.

  • Fucked up with no one to blame but myself.

    Jump

  • Good to hear. Now buy an external HDD or a device of your choice and copy the files there and store it somewhere safe. One backup is no backup.

  • Gatekeeper: The first open-source DDoS protection system. Has anyone tried mass hosting this as a group?

    Jump

  • You may want to change the title and include the word "protection"...

  • Have clankers visited my blog one hundred twenty-one sexagintillion eight hundred ten novemquinquagintillion times so far in November??

  • The traffic is really suspicious. Have you by any chance a health or heartbeat endpoint which provides continuous output? That would explain why so little hits cause so much traffic.

  • openDesk 1.10. Enhanced security architecture

    Jump

  • It is an open alternative to MS365 developed on behalf of the German ministry of the interior and distributed as open source software.

    https://www.opendesk.eu/en/product

    If I remember correctly it is not an independent development but it is based on existing software and integrating them to build a consistent service.

    I think it combines Nextcloud, Element, Jitsi and some other projects.

  • Rybbit - Open source Google Analytics replacement

    Jump

  • The community edition allows me to have multiple sites, multiple users and is way easier to set up. If I ever need additional features like funnels I would need a subscription for both - Plausible is less expensive.

  • Rybbit - Open source Google Analytics replacement

    Jump

  • Just a word of warning for everyone: The free self hosted version is heavily limited. I will stick with Plausible which may be simpler but also doesn't want to push me into a subscription.

  • how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life?

    Jump

  • Everyone has experienced an AWS / Google Cloud / Azure outage or has had a service - you are happy to use switching to (more expensive) subscription service. That's two things that are not going to happen to self-hosters (except the outage thing, but you can actually do something about it when it happens).

  • Autograding tool

    Jump

  • You could use automated testing tools to do the work for you. You define your requirements as individual tests and every input is tested separately giving you a report which tests failed and which succeeded.
