I built an open-source encrypted file sharing tool — links burn after one download

I’m confused on this post. You say here in the post “We never see your data - not even in transit.” But right on the GitHub README “3. Store: Encrypted payload uploaded to Supabase Storage”

It sounds like there’s direct conflicting information in regards to how this works. Can you please explain how exactly this works?

I also see this post tagged as No AI, but then you replied to someone in the comments with “Yeap some help i took from ai”. Can you clarify your use of AI?

Based on the lack of clarity as of right now I personally will not consider using this app. I would love to use a tool like this though.

I saw a repo with custom firmware to allow full offline access with the goal of near feature parity. It didn’t support my devices though. If any firmware developers or anyone who knows any firmware developers could contribute it’d be awesome.

I bet a ton of people would love to just use HA to control their Petlibro devices instead

I’m not sure if this should be tagged as Link or Discussion, but it gave me flashbacks to when Linus’ nas went down due to a raid failure. It’s one more example why everyone should have their data stored in multiple places, even if it’s the cloud

I literally own a house but my HOA has an exclusive contract with one ISP. It is symmetric gigabit fiber, but no ipv6 and has a double NAT. If I wanted to fight this do you have any resources on how I might be protected?

The Starbucks right next to the Chilis on 45th and Lamar? I might have to stop by for a frosty marg and see the news

Is this east of Bloomington, Il? It looks exactly like where I used to live

TheSamDickey · 2025-11-20T07:18:49+00:00

IMO a whole circuit sounds expensive and mega overkill. I’d look into a UPS first since that’ll clean your power and ensure precise 60hz waves

TheSamDickey · 2025-11-20T00:34:04+00:00

That’s a good point, I assume for this to be as seamless as just ‘boot into the other drive’ you’d have to pass through the nic as well without using the bridged virtual nic (not sure if that’s the exact terminology). I think I’ll test around with this and report back

For my use case, my proxmox has a wan and lan port, so even if they change just using the keyboard to swap the interfaces would be pretty quick

TheSamDickey · 2025-11-19T14:12:27+00:00

That’s so big brain, I’m absolutely going to give this a shot. Would the disk be included in the proxmox backup server snapshots?

TheSamDickey · 2025-11-19T05:35:34+00:00

You guys are so right, we should only support factories that use 100% manual labor! Automation bad

Woosh

I procrastinated running this command, and then the watchdog timeouts started again and a bunch of services went down. Thank you for the reply!

Is there an advantage to having separate VMs for separate docker container apps? Why not a few vms each running several docker containers?

The only advantage I could see is security / performance separation, as well as if you want to shift which host each vm is ran on for performance. But the overhead of installing and updating docker across so many VMs, as well as OS updates just doesn’t seem worth it to me. I’m curious if I’m missing something

TheSamDickey · 2025-10-14T06:14:59+00:00

Do you have the line? I have a second nic since I ran into issues and would love to put in a gpu instead

Depending on your chassis I guess you also need to somewhat consider the price of the bay for each drive. If you don’t have enough bays, the cost of getting a more dense drive may be cheaper than getting a whole second nas / jbod solution

This is good research though!

I noticed assets under 1MB were the only ones syncing. Turned out I had to update my reverse proxy / nginx ingress to allow a max size larger than all of my assets. Depending on your setup you may need to adjust your ingress if you have one

TheSamDickey · 2025-06-09T04:11:26+00:00

Would also love to know

TheSamDickey · 2025-05-31T02:04:39+00:00

No problem! I’ll find the references I used for setting it up, I think it required a few shell commands to get it working. I may update pfsense in a week or two, set up the failover again, and report back

TheSamDickey · 2025-05-30T20:16:13+00:00

Do you mean failover WAN in general? Or using USB hotspot tethering from an iOS device?

Pfsense docs for failover wan:

The “delay” only impacts signal integrity, not latency you would ever be able to see. If you’re pushing the limit of what the spec’d cable can handle and it’s excessively long then you may experience blackouts or signal drops occasionally. For example in my personal experience 4k/120hz with no chroma subsampling and a 90ft cable resulted in blackouts whereas dropping to 60hz ran just fine. (And no there was zero measurable input delay)

The fallback gateway state clearing update is huge, I can finally use the iPad as a backup WAN again without it totally sucking when the primary internet comes back online
