Socketo

What it does

Socketo is a true drop-in replacement for Pusher that runs natively on Cloudflare Workers + Durable Objects. Just swap the host, key, and secret and all your existing Pusher Channels code (public, private, presence channels, member events) works instantly with zero client-side changes.

Drop-in Pusher Channels replacement for serverless scale. Pay once per broadcast with zero subscriber multiplication, or self-host the open-source edition.

Drop-in Pusher Channels replacement on Cloudflare's global edge. Flat broadcast pricing, zero fan-out fees — or self-host with one command. import Pusher from "pusher-js" ; const pusher = new Pusher ( "YOUR_APP_KEY" , { wsHost: "wss.socketo.dev" , cluster: "socketo" , forceTLS: true , }); Drop-in replacement for Pusher Channels Works with your existing codebase and official Pusher SDKs.

  OpenWorkers – Self-hosted Cloudflare workers in RustJan 2026 · openworkers.com · ▲500

  I've been working on this for some time now, starting with vm2, then deno-core for 2 years, and recently rewrote it on rusty_v8 with Claude's help. OpenWorkers lets you run untrusted JS in V8 isolates on your own infrastructure. Same DX as Cloudflare Workers, no vendor lock-in. What works today: fetch, KV, Postgres bindings, S3&#x2F;R2, cron scheduling, crypto.subtle. Self-hosting is a single docker-compose file + Postgres. Would love feedback on the architecture and what feature you'd want next.

  DriftDB – an open source WebSocket backend for real-time apps2023 · driftdb.com · ▲367

  Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB. In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY). You may have seen my…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok&#x2F;s prefill and 1200 tok&#x2F;s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
