    Hi HN! I built Openinary because Cloudinary and Uploadcare lock your images and charge per request. Openinary lets you self-host a full image pipeline: transform, optimize, and cache images on your infra; S3, Cloudflare R2, or any S3-compatible storage. It’s the only self-hosted Cloudinary-like tool handling both transformations and delivery with a simple URL API (/t/w_800,h_800,f_avif/sample.jpg). Built with Node.js, Docker-ready. GitHub: https://github.com/openinary/openinary Feedback welcome; especially from Cloudinary users wanting the same UX but on…

Right now, the Dashboard (URLs + freeform notes), News (RSS/Atom/JSON feeds), and Contacts (CardDav) are working. If you have any suggestions, comments, or recommendations, I'd love to hear it. Thank you for your attention and kindness. I really appreciate it!

    Hi HN, I built a WordPress plugin called Bandwidth Saver. It takes the images your site already has and serves them through Cloudflare R2 and Workers, which means zero egress fees and extremely low storage cost. The goal is to make image delivery fast and cheap without adding any of the complexity of traditional optimization plugins. The idea is simple. WordPress keeps generating images normally. The plugin rewrites the URLs on the frontend so images are served from a Cloudflare Worker. On the first request, the Worker fetches the original image and stores it in R2. After that, Cloudflare’s…
