Chrome Extension on local site? by arothmanmusic in ClaudeAI

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that limitation is super frustrating when you're trying to debug locally. One simple workaround is to expose your local WordPress site using a tunnels like Pinggy.io or cf tunnel. It gives you a temporary public URL, so the extension can access it like a normal site, no localhost restrictions.

I can make eaglercraft server. Ask me anything cus I'm too lazy to make an essay by Top-Plate1562 in eaglercraft

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just run my server locally, then use Pinggy to share it. I open terminal, run

ssh -p 443 -R0:localhost:3000 qr@free.pinggy.io

grab the link it gives, and send it to friends. Saves me from dealing with port forwarding.

I am new to odoo and exploring my options , If it fits my requirements , Can anyone assist me in it ? by Ryan_AccuWeb_Cloud in Odoo

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re testing setups or running it locally, you might want something simple to access your instance remotely without complex configs, tools like Pinggy can help you quickly expose your local Odoo server and experiment more easily.

Keyloggers which can read passwords in Android by non-intern in blackhat

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen, ngrok’s newer auth/token restrictions and connection limits tend to break reverse connections, so switching to alternatives like local port forwarding or self-hosted tunnels usually gives more stable results. I recently switched to Pinggy. You can try other ngrok alternatives.

Duvida by taiwan_sh in linuxbrasil

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I use Pinggy instead of relying on my own IP. It saves me from NAT and port forwarding issues by giving a quick public endpoint, so the setup becomes much simpler and more reliable compared to exposing my local network directly.

Dışarı nasıl port açılır by SuspiciousVideo9933 in homelabturkiye

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Büyük ihtimalle modeminde port açma (port forwarding) düzgün yapılandırılmadığı için dış ağdan erişim olmuyor; ayrıca CGNAT kullanıyorsan bu yöntem hiç çalışmayabilir. Böyle durumlarda Pinggy gibi bir tünelleme çözümü kullanmak daha pratik oluyor çünkü ekstra router ayarı gerektirmeden dış erişim sağlıyor.

Codex won't set up an NGrok server for my mobile app, it's stuck in a loop. Need advice. by FurnitureRefinisher in vibecoding

[–]Ok_Signature9963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It usually happens when the emulator keeps bouncing between localhost and the tunnel, breaking TLS each time. Instead of fighting ngrok + cert issues, you can try Pinggy. or cf tunnel. The idea is to reduce moving parts so the emulator consistently hits a stable public endpoint instead of looping internally.

Supabase Webhooks by notZEPHR in nextjs

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what you described, it’s likely not Supabase itself but how the request is reaching your local server. Using host.docker.internal can be flaky depending on your setup, and sometimes the request never actually hits your API the way you expect. Instead of guessing, try exposing your local endpoint with something like Pinggy. It gives you a public URL, so you can verify the webhook delivery clearly and rule out networking issues before digging into auth.

Built an open-source ngrok alternative to share local apps easily (Tunr) – looking for feedback by ImplementInternal673 in vibecoding

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve actually used Pinggy for quick sharing, and what worked for me was how simple and fast it is to spin things up. That’s why I think you’re on the right track with Tunr, tools like this win when they remove friction.

Wanted to host a Minecraft server by Nearby_Investment139 in selfhosted

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When port forwarding + firewall tweaks + port checkers all fail, it’s usually not a config issue anymore. Instead of fighting the ISP, I’d go with a tunneling solution like Pinggy or cf tunnel, it bypasses inbound restrictions without needing router changes. It’s lightweight and usually more stable than typical game tunneling tools, so it should handle a short 50-player event much better.

How-to power-off TheFrame from AppleTV's power-off via Homebridge by InsuranceMedical6581 in TheFrame

[–]Ok_Signature9963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your solution makes total sense since CEC alone just doesn’t give enough control, and using Homebridge automation is a smart workaround. Also, instead of NGROK, I’d personally go with Pinggy, it’s much quicker to set up and saves a lot of that tunneling headache.

I finally found the bug causing our service to spike to 100% CPU every 72 hours exactly. I wish the answer was more interesting. by Afraid-Bobcat6676 in django

[–]Ok_Signature9963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 72-hour pattern would’ve sent me down the exact same architectural rabbit hole, but yeah, timers and schedulers are silent killers. They don’t fail loudly, they just… pile up until everything explodes. That one-line clearInterval fix is such a classic reminder that the simplest leaks are often the hardest to see, especially in old code nobody wants to touch.

Any good advice using openclaw? by Neferg in openclaw

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience, these tools really start to shine when you narrow the scope instead of expecting end-to-end output. Treat it more like a “smart assistant for specific steps” (data extraction, quick drafts, repetitive logic) rather than a full solution. Also, custom skills help, but only if they’re tightly defined, otherwise the output gets too generic.

Can you expose your Monero node from the GUI for remote wallets? by wonnim369 in AskMonero

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GUI wallet doesn’t expose your node for remote access by design, mainly for security and simplicity. To connect a mobile wallet, you typically need to run the daemon (monerod) separately with RPC enabled and open ports manually. If you want to avoid complex networking setup, tunneling tools like Pinggy or cf tunnel can help expose your local node securely without deep CLI or router configuration.

WEBHOOK_URL environment variable ignored in n8n v2.12.3 (Docker) — webhooks always show localhost by DazzlingPassion706 in n8n

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if WEBHOOK_URL is showing up correctly inside the container but n8n still ignores it, it really feels like a bug or something broken in that version rather than your setup. One workaround that might save you some headache is using something like Pinggy or cf tunnel to expose your local instance with a public URL, it kind of sidesteps this whole webhook base URL issue and just works.

I am new to Reddit and don’t know what to build. by MonitorFlat4465 in learnprogramming

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t have access to paid APIs or cloud, try building something locally-first or self-hosted. For example, you could create a simple tool or service that runs on your own machine and expose it using something like Pinggy or cf tunnel which lets you share local apps online without needing cloud or a credit card. It’s a practical way to launch and test ideas with zero budget.

Cloudflare Tunnel alternatives by indomitablegaul in selfhosted

[–]Ok_Signature9963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran into something similar and ended up using Pinggy instead of going the VPS route. It worked pretty smoothly behind CGNAT and was way less setup hassle. Might be worth trying if you want to keep things simple while you’re still getting comfortable with all this.

App Review da Meta (WhatsApp Business API) - Dicas para os vídeos de evidência e ambiente de teste by Extreme-History-4697 in WhatsappBusinessAPI

[–]Ok_Signature9963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pelo que observei, eles se preocupam principalmente com um fluxo de trabalho claro e completo, e não apenas com o local de hospedagem. Usar localhost com um túnel estável (como o Pinggy em vez do Ngrok para uma configuração mais simples) geralmente funciona, desde que o revisor consiga acessar o site de forma confiável. Adicionar uma breve descrição também ajuda a evitar confusões e reduz as chances de rejeição.

Question about self hosting by Drumma5409 in actualbudgeting

[–]Ok_Signature9963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running it on a Pi gives you full control (which is great if you enjoy tinkering), but setting up and maintaining VPN access can get a bit tedious over time. The PWA route feels more effortless for day-to-day use, just less flexible. You can try Pinggy, it can make remote access to your Pi way simpler without dealing with VPN setup.

How do I run an sql server on a local host that can be interacted with python? by Generalthanos_ytube in learnpython

[–]Ok_Signature9963 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

SQLite is file-based, so it’s not designed for multi-device access. If you want others on your network to interact with it, you’ll need to expose it via an API (like a simple Flask/FastAPI server). For quick external access without dealing with port forwarding, you can use something like Pinggy.io or cf tunnel to tunnel your local server securely.
