    Creator here. I was looking for something as simple as Backblaze Personal [1] but privacy focused and open source. This is my attempt to build that. Uses PyQt6 [2] for the GUI and Pyinstaller [3] for creating the platform specific binaries. The backup engine under the hood is Restic [4]. The server code is written in Laravel [5]. All the code is on GitHub [6]. I actually really like Backblaze (even use B2 for this offering behind the scenes) so this isn't meant to throw shade their way. Just wanted a private open source alternative. Something like Bitwarden but for backups. [1]…

    Hi there! This is Yury, a co-founder. We've been busy for a while building EdgeDB Cloud and now it's finally here. EdgeDB Cloud is pretty cool and takes full advantage of our database. You get declarative schema, strict typing throughout, great performance, a query language that's best of GraphQL & SQL, and many many other perks. The Cloud itself is quite unique because of EdgeDB. Our query language gives you composability - so you can fetch everything for your page or API endpoint in one network request. And our protocol and client libraries give you auto recovery on network errors,…

    Hey HN, We've been experimenting with a real-time, version-controlled NoDB for Deno & React called GoatDB. The idea is to remove backend complexity while keeping apps fast, offline-resilient, and easy to self-host. Runs on the client – No backend required, incremental queries keep things efficient. Self-hosted & lightweight – Deploy a single executable, no server stack needed. Offline-first & resilient – Clients work independently & can restore state after server outages. Edge-native & fast – Real-time sync happens locally with minimal overhead. Why We Built It: We needed something that’s…

    Hey HN People, I know it's 2025, and you might be wondering why there's a need for a personal finance web app. I'd like to share my story and why I created lit.Money. During COVID, I started actively managing my finances, primarily optimizing for FIRE and monitoring my progress. There are apps in India, but I didn't like their UI. I don't like to exchange messages or call with accountant for bank details or transaction queries. I also wanted a simple way to view my partner's and family's finances in one place. I considered Copilot, but it wasn't available in India. While there are 1 or 2…

    Needed this in my own work, anonymizing PII/PHI and decided to build this because presidio didn't really cut it for our use-case. Try it and maybe let me know if you have any feedback :)

    The new cloud service enables users to deploy their projects seamlessly, giving them the flexibility to use undb both locally and in the cloud, depending on their needs. This makes it easier for teams to collaborate on projects while still maintaining control over data privacy. I’d love to get your feedback on this! You can try it out, explore the cloud service, and let us know what you think. GitHub: https://github.com/undb-io/undb
