Apart from pricing and data privacy, are there any other factors that contribute to the decision between self-hosting vs a managed solution?

Recently moved all of my apps to a $5/mo VPS using Coolify Saved tons of $$, and can self-host my NextJS/FastAPI/Ghost/Postgres instances etc. Coolify has an API that can be used to automate this setup for common self-hosting scenarios (NextJS, Supabase, Gatsby, Remix, Postgres, FastAPI, Mysql,...

Hey guys and girls, do you still use Heroku? I know they were hot like 5, 10 years ago but I'm not sure if that's true now? Thanks a bunch, Tom

Oh boy, that was a long one. My website is done on Astro and I wanted to use external library for i18n because it had ability to rename paths based on the locale. That was the most important part for me.  Unfortunately the library is poorly documented, so there was a lot of trial and error along...

Someone knows how to do it? I have a service that is fully dockerized, where each tenant runs inside its own Docker container. I want to develop a RESTful API to manage these containers, allowing me to create new instances and retrieve information about specific ones. But i does not have any ide...

I have a few questions: • How do you structure your dotfiles? • What kinds of settings do you keep in them? • How do you learn about settings or options you can add to them? • What applications do you include? • How do you bac...

Hi everyone, It’s been a while—I hope everyone is doing great and shipping a lot! :D I have a question: Recently, I’ve started creating some projects again and found that development in PHP is surprisingly fast for me. I don’t know why, but I’m enjoying it. However, I have a concern regarding d...

I like Collapse Folders in Explorer - cmd/ctrl + shift + up-arrow.  I used to create a custom keybinding for this but I've been trying to stick to defaults where ever possible.

Hey all, would love some constructive (and non constructive) criticism on my landing page. Is it easy to understand what we're all about? https://www.tryranger.dev/ Thanks a ton

I built a few different rails apps locally and am ready to deploy them but I'm not sure how I should deploy them (especially since I have 2 that I want to ship on the same server).  Some thoughts I had: • Digital Ocean VPS and manually install ruby, nginx, passenger etc and allocate resources? •...

I can't get facebook to display the image I set in the og:image meta description in high quality. It only appears blurry even though I set it exactly to 1200x630px, and also it doesn't take the latest image I define either. Does it take days to update the new image?

Just made my first money yesterday, didn't even ask for it, which is a good sign I guess.

For log management in general, I've used the Elasticsearch stack and Splunk at past jobs - but those are insanely expensive and meant for big companies. Way out of budget for now. I've also tried logz.io's free plan before but they dropped logs and the interface was pretty bad last I checked. Any...

Hey guys!   I am looking for feedback for a tool I'm building called Onboardbase to solve this problem.

I am doing my first project on Firebase backend. It seems cool enough. Although, on the other hand PostgreSQL is so darn powerful. Anyway, does anyone know how I could set up firebase so I can get notifications when new users sign up? Also curious to hear any tips and tricks for using Firebase su...

Hi WIP Community, I launched Cloud Nuke to make it easy to safely delete AWS resources in 3 clicks! I've found that deleting idle & underutilized cloud resources is the quickest win to reduce spending on cloud bills. Additionally the workflow of deleting cloud resources often exist in Engineeri...

How do you know that your production website or platform is up, performing well, and functioning correctly for your users?
