A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

ServerClip is a tool for copying contents of a file over various ssh connections. Need to get a log file over to your laptop? This can help.

This is just scp with more steps

My goal is to get xclip working across ssh sessions, but from a windows host. I constantly have to scp files back and forth and it's a pain.

What about xpipe?

It has a nice gui and ssh filemanager. Runs on all OSes afaik

I'll have to look into that. My issue with sftp/scp/etc is that I'm sshing into many vms, without servers setup on them. I just need a file occasionally but rapidly.

xpipe might really be perfect for you then.

I use it to manage all my machines, vms, docker containers etc. which I would usually ssh into.

It keeps a list of them for you and you can open a commandline or a filemanager with a single click.

Why not use X forwarding?
