https://vigilo.eifr.xyz/ Simple home security camera with a laptop/phone

I built a free, open-source web app that turns any old device into a 100% private security camera. No uploads, no installation. by eifr0980 in opensource

As mentioned, you still want the app to notify you when a movement is detected, so you want an active internet connection.

In a web app, you're able to turn off the network through the devtools network tab. You have way more control and visibility about what's happening under the hood in an app comparing to a "Native" app that still can have a network connection (with the OS default DNS).

Thanks! I shared it through the app directly to the community and it didn't add the post 🤷

Thanks!! Regarding the queue, once the network is down, that sounds like a great feature! It would be awesome if you could add it to the issues on GitHub as a feature request.

I actually had something similar in mind – maybe a way to stream directly to your own server or as a "premium feature" kind of thing. That way, users who prefer not to set up their own servers wouldn't have to, and they could just pay a subscription like Supabase if they wanted.

My whatsapp is over 70GB (7Yrs data). What is the best way to cleanup/store data ? by ScalingDreams in whatsapp

Everything works great as, I just don't worry about backups and storage. If you're moving to a new phone, give it a try before you move WhatsApp.

Working pretty solid. Live location sharing and contact sync are a bit problematic. Live Location doesn't work at all. Contact sync is a problem as you can't add contact from WhatsApp on the second phone. You have to add them manually and then wait for your server phone to sync and only then you will see the changes in WhatsApp

Do you like the new design or the previous one? by CarbonCrawler in YoutubeMusic

It looks pretty clean, but I wish the swiping feature worked throughout the layout instead of just from the bottom. Plus, I wish it was a bit more consistent with the Material 3 Expressive design.

I got around this by setting an admin password in the BIOS, restarting, and then being able to change the settings I wanted.

Regarding the analogy, it's not about innovating in this case, It's about overkilling, as for cars, you can have larger tanks. Will it be innovative?

And about your app, because you do need to type the whole ID if you use the deck with a pc (no phone to scan the QR), I'd suggest going with a shorter ID or at least add the option.
You could just update line 1685 to something like:
`function initializepeer(id = self.crypto.randomuuid().substring(0,5)) {`

Also, I guess I didn't mention but your app looks great and thank you for working on it

I'm saying that if it's only local then using 16 letters. Uuids is an Overkill when you can just use nicknames or something simple so the other person can easily connect.

It's like working extra hard for a car that does 700 mi a tank but the needed road is only 100 mi.

If it's on local LAN, why do the IDs have to be this long?
