Selfhosted

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.

I want to share some images securely with self destruct. Is there any alternatives can do what Unsee.cc does excluding chat?

So the functions I'm looking for:

  • Self-expiring image
  • Copy protection
  • Store in RAM
  • (optional) watermarking
  • (optional) share more types of documents like PDF

Thanks in advance.

I don't know of any existing project, but this sounds pretty trivial to make with Python using http.server and PIL modules.

Upload file and store in RAM. Delete after first fetch. Optional watermarking for image files using PIL.

Does send meet what you need?

I remember using it for the self expiring feature. It also is built to use e2e so the sever only handles encrypted data.
I am not sure on the others though.

The most important is actually the copy protection. I don't want the viewer can download the file easily.

DRM will always be a difficult on untrusted devices. I think signal has some options to restrict it

Does not have all the features you listed, but I used Rustypaste in the past for sharing all kind of things and was quite happy with it.
