Synaps Media
Hi HN, I’m Murat, a software engineer based in the Netherlands, and I’ve been building Synaps Media, a fully managed hosting service for Ghost CMS. I love Ghost as a publishing platform, but I found self-hosting frustrating, managing updates, security, backups, and performance optimizations is time-consuming.

GhostHub2025 · github.com · ▲18I built GhostHub because I was tired of Plex/Jellyfin setups just to watch or share a few files. This lets you: - Run instantly (Python script, .exe, or Docker) - Browse media in a swipe-based UI (mobile + desktop) - Share online with built-in tunnel support (Cloudflare or Pinggy) - Set session passwords, live sync views, and even chat No logins. No setup. Just run it, point it to a folder, and go. Live demo (limited features): https://ghosthub.net Would love feedback, bug reports, or ideas!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
