so i've been running posthive + 2 other projects on railway hobby plan for a while now and was curious what it actually costs

here's the breakdown:

posthive api (fastify + bullmq + sqlite) sitting at 136mb ram-> $0.59/month redis for the job queue, only using 12mb memory, 300mb volume for rdb snapshots -> $0.12/month two other projects -> $1.63/month

total so far this month: $2.58, estimated end of month: $3.32

the thing i like about railway billing is it's based on memory + cpu time, not requests. so traffic spikes don't really affect the cost. egress is free tier too.

kept redis lean by configuring bullmq to only keep the last 100 completed and 200 failed jobs so it doesn't just accumulate forever

for the docker setup i'm building multi-arch images (amd64 + arm64) on ghcr with github actions layer caching, and a paths filter so doc-only commits don't trigger a rebuild

My government doesn't include PM2.5 in it's weather forecasts and I want to start posting PSAs in city/provincial comms to let people know of poor/unhealthy air quality my government seems to ignore. Ideally this website will be much like breezy and use data fro the Copernicus satellite (which Open Meteo does). I tried searching but all I can find is api's, repositories, and articles on foss weather apps.

Currently Breezy shows AQI is 90 and will be ~120 by midnight, which means if one spends about an hour outside without a k/n95 mask or p100 respirator there can be health consequences. At the same time the governments forecasting shows it's AQI as "3 - Low Risk" for the whole week, which is not true at all. In fact I'm not aware of time when it wasn't 3 lol.

Hi everyone,

I’m happy to share that Portabase now supports backup and restore for Docker volume!

Portabase is an open-source, self-hosted backup and restore platform, currently supporting 9 databases including PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, Redis, and more.

We’re now expanding it to cover Docker volumes too, because many self-hosted apps do not store critical data only in databases.

Typical use cases include WordPress uploads, Nextcloud user files, media libraries, app configuration data, and more generally any self-hosted service where critical data lives in Docker volumes.

The goal is still the same: make backup and restore simple, reliable, and easy to operate. Portabase uses a central server with lightweight agents running close to your workloads.

If you find bugs, please open an issue on GitHub, we’re actively looking for feedback.

Thanks!

So I finally decided to replace a tiktok, but I don't want to just use another app with short videos, instead what I need is the app which is gonna be generating a link to a normal duration videos (or a long 1+ hour video, I don't really care)

Hello everyone!!

D.eSystem 6.0.7 beta got a lot of polishing work. For example the versions 6.0.3 beta-6.0.6 veta were internial test versions,thats why 6.0.7 beta released.

D.eSystem 6.0.7 beta fixes major bugs in the calculator app and its the first D.eSystem which allows to change the wallpaper in the D.eShell.

D.eSystem 6.0.7 beta release on github: https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/all_D.eSystem_versions/releases/tag/v.6.0.7_beta

Github main page: https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/all_D.eSystem_versions

I’m testing a tiny idea: “README policy as code.”

Not markdown style linting, but more of a maintainer checks:

• required sections
• example presence
• link checks

Would this be useful in your projects?

If yes, what’s the one rule you’d want first?

ColorSym is a free, open-source color-identification system that pairs every color with a unique, memorable symbol. When color alone isn't enough to tell things apart, the symbol does the job, so the roughly 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women with color vision deficiency can read your components, charts, or UI with confidence.

D.eSystem 6.0.2 beta fixed a bug with the timer in the clock app and a bug with the D.eSystem version.

New release in new github repo: https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/-all_D.eSystem_versions/releases/tag/v.6.0.2_beta
