When Commento's original maintainer went quiet, Commento++ bundled the community's bug fixes and stalled merge requests into a batteries-included release of the beloved Go-based Disqus alternative - and kept building. The core promise is unchanged: an embeddable comments box that is orders of magnitude lighter and faster than Disqus, with no ads, tracking, or data sales - two lines of HTML and a PostgreSQL database. On top of Markdown comments, voting, Disqus import, OAuth login (Google, GitHub, Twitter) plus SSO, sticky comments, thread locking, and email notifications, the fork's additions are substantial: WebSocket-powered live comment updates with permalinks and highlight animations for new arrivals, guest commenting with a name, a cross-domain moderation dashboard for approving and deleting comments in one place, MathJax rendering support, wildcard domain matching, a reInit hook that makes single-page-application integration clean, and Perspective API spam scoring alongside the existing Akismet integration. Optional page-view logging graphs traffic on the dashboard, native SSL termination works without a proxy, and script-tag data attributes control fonts, CSS overrides, deleted-comment visibility, and polling-versus-WebSocket behavior.

When Clarkson, the once-popular fuel logger, stopped receiving updates, Hammond stepped in as its logical successor - a self-hosted vehicle expense tracker. Written in Go with a Vue.js interface and SQLite storage - a single lightweight container, no external database - it tracks every cost your vehicles generate: fuel fill-ups with cost, volume, and odometer readings; maintenance and repairs; and arbitrary other expenses, each attachable with photos and documents stored against the vehicle. The multi-user, multi-vehicle design is what sets it apart from phone apps: a household or small business adds all its vehicles and all its drivers, shares vehicles across users, and every fill-up lands in one ledger no matter who was driving. The Quick Entries feature respects how expenses actually happen - snap a photo of the receipt or pump screen at the gas station, then complete the structured entry later when you have a minute. Reporting works at both the vehicle level (cost per distance, fuel economy trends) and across the whole fleet. Migration matters here: importers for Clarkson, Fuelly, and Drivvo bring years of fill-up history along, so switching does not mean starting your data over.

CRM mechanics applied to your actual relationships instead of a sales pipeline: Nametag is a Personal Relationship Manager (PRM). It exists to fix the things you keep forgetting: when you last talked to an old friend, their kids' names, the birthday you missed twice. Contacts are tracked with flexible attributes - names, birthdays, important dates, and free-form notes for everything else - and organized into custom groups. Where it goes beyond a contacts app is relationship mapping: you define how people connect to each other (family, friends, colleagues, or custom relationship types), and an interactive D3.js-powered graph renders your entire personal network so you can see clusters and connections at a glance. Staying in touch is automated: scheduled reminders fire for birthdays, important dates, and reach-out nudges, with optional email delivery via a Resend API key for password resets and reminder notifications. Built with Next.js, it is mobile-responsive, ships with full dark mode, and supports multiple languages including English and Spanish. Because it is self-hosted, there are no account tiers or contact limits - unlimited people and relationships, with every note about your personal life stored on your own server rather than a social-graph company's cloud. A lightweight, single-container deployment makes it one of the easiest personal tools to run.

Revolt gives communities the full Discord experience without ads, behavioral tracking, or subscription fees: servers with text and voice channels, direct messages, group conversations, roles, bots, and custom emoji at zero cost per user. The Rust microservices backend splits responsibilities across Delta for REST API and authentication, Bonfire for persistent WebSocket real-time event delivery, Autumn for file upload routing to MinIO S3-compatible object storage, and January for link preview proxy and embed generation. Voice chat operates through LiveKit with WebRTC audio streaming supporting multiple concurrent participants per channel. Server administrators configure hierarchical role-based permissions at the server, channel, and per-role level, controlling who can send messages, manage channels, kick members, and access moderation tools. Text channels support Markdown formatting, custom emoji, file attachments up to 20 MB, GIF search via Tenor integration, and message reactions. The bot API enables automated moderation, entertainment, and custom workflow integration with community-maintained libraries available in JavaScript, Python, and Rust. The TypeScript and Solid.js web frontend provides a responsive interface with theme customization. Docker Compose deployment spins up the complete stack including MongoDB for message and user storage, Redis for caching, and MinIO for attachments, providing complete data sovereignty over all conversations and files. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Invoicerr nails the exact billing sequence freelancers actually use: draft a quote, send it to the client, collect a legally-binding electronic signature via a secure browser link, convert the approved quote into an invoice, and generate a branded PDF — no DocuSign account, no external signing service, no enterprise complexity. The React frontend with NestJS backend uses Prisma ORM with your choice of SQLite for instant local setup or PostgreSQL for production workloads. Quotes and invoices are first-class objects with independent status tracking — unread, sent, viewed, signed for quotes; paid for invoices — not a single form with a label swap. The e-signature system generates secure-token signing links that clients open in their browser to review and sign documents without needing any account or external service. PDF generation renders quotes, invoices, and receipts with your company logo, name, VAT number, colors, and custom email templates so documents reflect your brand identity rather than the software's defaults. Authentication supports JWT tokens or OIDC providers stored in cookies. The REST API backend enables future integrations with mobile and desktop clients. A plugin system with community-made features and outgoing webhooks extends functionality without forking core code. International-friendly with customizable currencies. Deploy with Docker Compose using the prebuilt image from GitHub Container Registry. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

With over 330 GitHub stars and described as "OpenRouter, but for agent tools instead of models," Treg is the unified tool registry that gives your AI agent one base URL, one token, and instant access to approximately 2,800 cataloged endpoints across 56 providers — SEO and backlink analysis via Semrush and Moz, social media intelligence from TikTok and Instagram, people and company enrichment through Crunchbase and Hunter, media buying, scraping, and SERP data — all priced per call from fractions of a cent with no provider signup required. The FastAPI backend with PostgreSQL stores credential bindings and injects them server-side into every proxied request, ensuring API keys and OAuth tokens never touch the agent or local machine while every call is audit-logged. Teams register their own paid API accounts, OAuth connections, vendor CLIs like Stripe, GitHub CLI, Vercel, and gcloud, plus custom SKILL.md definitions — all callable by every teammate's agent through a single treg token with automatic credential injection. The evidence-based tool selector shows success rate, response speed, and last-seen timestamp for each provider, so agents pick tools on measured performance rather than guesswork. Bring-your-own-key routes bypass metering entirely, and the one-dollar free credit on every new team lets agents start calling immediately. The Vue.js web dashboard provides team management, audit logs, catalog browsing, and guided onboarding. Self-host with pip install tools-registry[server] on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

With nearly 600 GitHub stars and a feature set that rivals commercial note apps, Glass Keep is the self-hosted Google Keep alternative that wraps a full-featured notes system in a glassmorphism UI with blurred backdrops, translucent modals, and smooth transitions. The React and Vite frontend renders notes in a masonry card grid with pinning, color themes, tag chips, and drag-and-drop reordering. Text notes support Markdown with headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, blockquotes, and fenced code blocks, while checklists offer inline editing, drag-to-reorder items, and direct toggle from the grid without opening the note. A freehand drawing mode provides customizable brush sizes and colors for handwritten notes. The private AI assistant runs an optimized Llama 3.2 (1B) model entirely inside the Docker container using RAG over your own notes, answering queries like "what are my AWS commands?" without any data leaving your server. Deep search spans titles, Markdown text, tags, checklist items, and image names. Import notes from Google Keep via Takeout JSON files or export your entire vault as JSON with per-note Markdown downloads. The Express backend with better-sqlite3 requires no external database. Real-time collaboration enables shared checklists with live item toggling. Dark and light themes persist across sessions, and the PWA manifest supports installation on any device. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

After the bills are covered, how much is actually safe to spend? monetr organizes an entire budgeting application around that one question. Inspired by the defunct Simple bank, it budgets paycheck by paycheck rather than month by month. Funding schedules encode when you get paid - including multiple schedules per account and a weekend-exclusion option for deposits that land early - and every expense or savings goal is tied to one. monetr then calculates how much of each recurring obligation (rent, car payment, subscriptions, on any repeat interval) to set aside from each paycheck, so a large bill never has to come out of a single check. What remains after allocations is surfaced as Free-To-Use, and a forecasting timeline projects contributions, due dates, and leftover funds forward so low-balance periods are visible before they happen. Transactions arrive either as OFX uploads from your bank or automatically through a Plaid connection using your own API credentials, keeping balances and transactions synced without manual entry. The app is mobile-friendly and installable as a PWA on desktop or phone. Self-hosting via Docker Compose is completely free, with all source code public and your financial data on your own hardware.

A free, polished web client for Subsonic-compatible music servers: Substreamer is the browser-based frontend you point at your existing streaming backend to play your own library from anywhere. It speaks the Subsonic API (v1.13 and higher), which makes it compatible with the whole ecosystem that has grown around that protocol: the original Subsonic server, its forks Airsonic and Madsonic, and modern implementations like Navidrome and Ampache. That decoupling is the point - your music files, transcoding, and library indexing live on whichever server you prefer, while Substreamer provides the listening experience: browse by artist, album, and genre, build and manage playlists, search your collection, and stream on demand. This RepoCloud deployment runs the containerized web edition, so the same interface is available from any browser without installing a native app, and it pairs with the Substreamer mobile apps that made the client popular. For anyone assembling a self-hosted Spotify replacement - typically Navidrome for the backend plus a good client - Substreamer fills the client half with a clean, familiar player UI. Because it is a stateless client, the container is lightweight and low-maintenance: connect it to your server's URL and credentials, and your entire collection is streaming in minutes, with no subscription and no catalog that can disappear.

A Day One alternative that keeps your most personal writing on your own server: Journiv is journaling purpose-built for self-hosters. The FastAPI backend runs on SQLite by default with optional PostgreSQL, Redis, and Celery for background work, behind a clean, minimal web UI. Unlike general note-taking apps, it ships the features journaling actually needs: customizable moods and mood groups, activity tracking, goals with automated progress from logged activities, and daily writing prompts filterable by category and difficulty so a blank page never stalls you. Quick Log captures a moment in seconds and expands into a full entry later; "On This Day" resurfaces entries from past weeks, months, and years. Multiple journals separate work, gratitude, and personal writing, with tags and full-text search across everything, plus media uploads with automatic thumbnails and an Immich integration for linking photo-library memories. Analytics chart mood trends and writing patterns over time. Data portability is taken seriously: native import of Day One exports, JSON/Markdown/HTML export, and a standalone HTML viewer that opens your archive in any browser with no server running. OIDC single sign-on works with Authentik or Keycloak, and multi-arch images cover amd64 and arm64.

Work, personal, business, and school calendars at different providers double-book because no one system sees your real availability - Keeper solves that multi-calendar collision problem. Its pull-compare-push sync engine aggregates events from Google Calendar, Outlook/Office 365, iCloud, FastMail, any CalDAV server, or read-only iCal/ICS feeds, and pushes blocking events to one or many destination calendars so time slots align everywhere. The design is deliberately content-agnostic - it syncs timeslots, not titles or descriptions, so a personal appointment shows as busy time on your work calendar without leaking details. Sync logic is clean: events Keeper creates carry a traceable UID suffix, deletions propagate, and orphaned entries are purged automatically. A token-authenticated aggregated iCal feed combines selected calendars into one subscribable URL for Apple Calendar or Thunderbird. An optional MCP server gives AI agents read-only calendar access over OAuth 2.1 - list calendars and query events by date range, with no write capability. Built with Next.js and Bun under AGPL-3.0, the standalone Docker image bundles web, API, cron, worker, Redis, and PostgreSQL in one container, and self-hosting unlocks every Pro feature - unlimited calendars and one-minute sync intervals - for free.

Your medical history, fragmented across a dozen patient portals, in one place on your server: MediKeep (formerly Personal Medical Records Keeper) is a self-hosted health record system. Built with a React frontend and FastAPI backend over PostgreSQL, it organizes 14 categories of medical data - medications with dosages and schedules, conditions, procedures, allergies, immunizations, symptoms, injuries, doctor visits and encounters, treatments, lab results, and even medical equipment with service dates and supplier info. Treatment management is genuinely sophisticated: an advanced mode links treatments to their medications with per-medication overrides for prescriber, pharmacy, and effective dates, and reverse lookup shows which treatments use a given medication. A dashboard summarizes records and recent activity, file uploads attach documents to records, and tagging works across categories. When a new specialist asks for your history, the report builder assembles custom reports by category and exports to PDF, JSON, or CSV - a curated, portable summary instead of a folder of photocopies. Authentication supports Google and GitHub SSO with OIDC providers like Keycloak and Authelia expected to work, and the built-in backup system protects the archive. Health data is exactly what should never live in someone else's cloud.

CoreObs delivers a unified self-hosted dashboard that replaces the typical combination of Uptime Kuma, Homer, and separate monitoring tools with a single interface for managing your entire server infrastructure. The Next.js frontend with shadcn components provides a modern dark-themed UI displaying server hardware metrics collected by a lightweight Go agent that leverages Glances for hardware abstraction — streaming real-time per-core CPU load, RAM utilization, NVIDIA GPU statistics, disk usage, system uptime, and load averages via WebSocket connections. The application registry tracks all self-hosted services with configurable uptime monitoring, availability history charts, and instant notifications through Discord, Telegram, Pushover, and email when services go down or recover. Quick-access links provide one-click navigation to each application's management panel directly from the dashboard. The network visualization module built on React Flow enables creating visual topology maps of your infrastructure with drag-and-drop nodes representing servers, switches, and services connected by labeled edges. Server data can be organized with tags, copied between entries, and monitored with configurable pagination and compact view modes. Deploy via Docker Compose with three containers — the Next.js web interface, the Go monitoring agent, and PostgreSQL 17 for persistent storage. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Scrumboy is a Kanban and sprint management tool that ships as a single Go binary backed by SQLite, deploys in under ten seconds via Docker, and uniquely integrates with AI coding agents through a standards-compliant MCP JSON-RPC endpoint. The dual-mode architecture supports Full mode with bootstrapped authentication, TOTP two-factor auth, OIDC/SSO integration through Keycloak, Authentik, Auth0, or Entra ID, role-based access control across Owner, Admin, User system tiers plus per-project Maintainer, Contributor, and Viewer roles, and Anonymous mode that generates instant shareable boards accessible via unique URLs with zero signup requirement. Custom workflows allow user-defined lane configurations per project including designated "Done" lanes, while sprints with configurable one or two-week cycles include board-level sprint filtering and the ability to disable and re-enable sprint tracking without losing history. Real-time Server-Sent Events power instant multi-user board updates, and outbound webhooks deliver JSON payloads to registered URLs when domain events fire with HMAC signature verification. The MCP endpoint at /mcp/rpc enables native integration with Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI agents through OAuth 2.1 with PKCE authorization, while API access tokens support CLI automation and CI/CD pipelines. Additional capabilities include VoiceFlow voice commands, per-project sticky-note walls, Markdown and Mermaid diagram support in task notes, append-only audit trails, VAPID Web Push notifications, SMTP password reset, Trello import, JSON backup with merge/replace/copy strategies, and 22-language internationalization. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL v3.0 licensed.

Built as a developer-first alternative to SendGrid, Mailgun, and Postmark, Posta delivers a complete self-hosted email infrastructure platform handling both outbound delivery and inbound reception through a single HTTP API with official SDKs for Go, PHP, and Java. The Go backend processes email through Redis and Asynq with automatic retries, priority queues, and async delivery while PostgreSQL stores templates, contacts, campaigns, and delivery analytics. Outbound features include versioned multi-language templates with variable substitution and stylesheet inlining, bulk campaigns with subscriber targeting and A/B testing per-variant metrics, scheduled timezone-aware delivery with draft/paused/cancelled lifecycle states, email address verification checking syntax, MX records, disposable domains, and role accounts, plus web view links with signed expiring URLs and one-click unsubscribe headers. The built-in SMTP receiver with TLS handles inbound email at your domains, parses messages and attachments, scores spam, and forwards structured payloads to your application via HMAC-verified webhooks with real-time SSE notification streams. The Vue-based dashboard manages templates, SMTP server pools, domains, contacts, API keys, campaigns, and email logs with dark and light mode support while admin-level platform metrics expose delivery rate trends, bounce rate graphs, and latency percentiles alongside Prometheus integration and daily health reports. Deploy via Docker with PostgreSQL and Redis. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.

JobSpy API turns seven major job boards into a single REST endpoint, aggregating listings from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Google Jobs, ZipRecruiter, Bayt, and Naukri through one GET request. Built on FastAPI with the Python JobSpy scraping library, the API returns structured JSON or downloadable CSV containing job titles, companies, locations, salaries, descriptions, posting dates, and direct application URLs. Filters cover search terms, location, distance radius, job type (full-time, part-time, contract, internship), remote status, hours since posting, country, and salary range. Interactive Swagger UI and ReDoc interfaces provide try-it-now functionality for testing queries directly in the browser. Security includes x-api-key header authentication with configurable rotation, per-endpoint rate limiting with adjustable thresholds, and response caching with configurable TTL to reduce redundant scraping. Global proxy support routes outbound requests through HTTP/HTTPS proxies to avoid IP-based rate limiting from job boards. Environment variables control everything from default search parameters and logging levels to CORS origins and documentation paths. Health check and ping endpoints integrate with uptime monitoring services. Docker Compose exposes the API on a configurable port. MIT licensed.

"Stupid simple software" is the entire philosophy at DumbWare.io, and DumbBudget delivers it: no over-engineering, no complexity, no accounts, no bank connections - just a clean, modern ledger for money in and money out. Log income and expenses, assign categories, and watch real-time balance calculations update as you type. Finding transactions is quick: filter by type, narrow by date range, sort by date or amount. When tax season or spreadsheet analysis calls, everything exports to CSV. Access control matches the philosophy - a single PIN (set via one environment variable) gates the app, backed by real security engineering: rate limiting on PIN attempts, temporary lockout after failures, secure session handling, and no sensitive data in browser storage. Multi-currency support covers the ISO codes, and a SITE_TITLE variable names each instance - deliberately useful, because running separate instances per account or family member is the intended pattern for multi-user needs. The responsive UI ships light and dark themes and installs as a PWA on phones, where expense logging actually happens. Configuration is five environment variables; data persists in one folder. If Actual Budget and Firefly III feel like accounting software, this is the notepad that gets used. GPL-licensed.

Where Miniflux strips reading down, FreshRSS gives you knobs - the feature-rich pole of self-hosted RSS, comfortable with thousands of feeds. It's a multi-user PHP aggregator (host family and friends on one instance, with an anonymous reading mode) with the reading workflow refined over a decade: favorites, custom tags, powerful filter and search queries, three reading views, and statistics that reveal each site's publishing frequency - useful for pruning subscriptions. Two properties make it the standard choice. First, the Google Reader-compatible API (plus a Fever API) syncs with virtually every serious RSS client - Reeder, NetNewsWire, ReadYou, FeedMe, Fluent Reader - so your phone reads from your server. Second, native WebSub support means compatible sources (WordPress, Blogger, Medium, Friendica) push new articles instantly instead of waiting for polling. A 50+ extension ecosystem adds what truncated feeds omit - full-text content fetching, reading-time estimates, trending views, auto-unsubscribe for dead feeds - alongside community themes and custom CSS. OPML import/export keeps subscriptions portable, a CLI handles administration, and article sharing posts to many services. AGPL-licensed, running on SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL. Feedly Pro's feature set, minus Feedly's subscription and its algorithms.
