I absolutely love Cloudron. It is the most amazing software I have used for ages. I am practically drunk with power using it . Cloudron is a joy. I feel unleashed. For me, Cloudron is one of the best things to happen for Free Software this millennium.

Nebulon, Girish, thank you so much for developing this utterly brilliant software. Thank you also to everybody packaging applications so well so that they can be reliably used here. Thank you all for your help on the forum.

I think Cloudron is going to take the world by storm.

Merry Christmas, Cloudron!

Thank you all for the incredible software and help this year.

I wish everybody a very peaceful and prosperous New Year!

Thank you, you brilliant people, for bringing Jitsi to Cloudron. I have been trying it, and it is working nicely.

This is a big win.

Well done!

@girish

It is a pity you can't hear the loud cheers and applause when you give us news like this.

OpenStreetMap Tile Server

https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-20-04-lts/

Most people use Open Street Map on its main site, but it would be nice to be able to deploy OSM at home, so that you don't need an internet connection and can browse maps privately.

The map of the world is broken into sections called tiles and to run your own instance of OSM you would need a tile server.

There has already been another OSM related request, but it doesn't seem to have made it into the Cloudron Applications yet:

https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/1219/umap-openstreetmap-layers-to-embedd-at-a-site?_=1634373804289

The update went very well. No problems. With Cloudron, I didn't even expect any problems.

Thank you, Cloudron team, for this great software!

It is good to hear your views. I think Cloudron is so desperately needed and so incredibly useful and so supportive of Freedom, I find it difficult to argue against what is asked. I also sincerely hope to support a project with such enormous potential to help people move away from proprietary services and onto Free Software.

What I think we need to do is to popularize Cloudron. With more users, there will hopefully be more revenue and that might help keep prices low. The extra users might also bring along more developers and that could help too.

If Cloudron reaches a critical mass of users, I think it will just rocket in popularity. Lets help make that happen!

For home security and to monitor your baby, ZoneMinder uses AI (Artificial Intelligence) to identify people and obejects.

There is a Docker Image:

ZoneMinder is under active development and has several nice features:

LastPass just had a security breach. Many people might be looking for more secure alternatives and Cloudron makes one available with Vault Warden.

This might be an opportune moment to mention Cloudron and its solutions in places where the LastPass community discuss matters.

@girish said in Immich vs ...:

I think Immich is more of a Google Photos replacement.

This sounds quite interesting for me. When installing from the App Store I am greeted by this note:

This app packages IMMICH 1.45.0

WARNING: NOT READY FOR PRODUCTION! DO >NOT USE TO STORE YOUR ASSETS. This project is under heavy development, there will be continuous functions, features and api changes.

is there a roadmap for the changes happening in the future? And an ETA when it might be stable to use?

Cloudron is waiting on Immich. Their roadmap for the project is here:

@jdaviescoates Thank you. It is quite amazing.

What if the cats wanted a discourse forum and then later so did the dogs?

@jayonrails said in Referral:

@girish Thanks for letting me know! I have now created a Cloudron account.

Congratulations! You will be delighted you did, I am sure!

@BrutalBirdie Thanks everybody! I should have been more clear.

Lets say these three communities do not and should not encounter each other. For example, the dog community, cat community and mouse community.

Would it still be possible to keep these three on the same cloudron ok? I think Nebulon said this was not what Cloudron was designed to do, however I reckon it might be workable.

I don't think Cloudron is designed for this kind of use, but lets just ask and see.

Lets say that you have several domains:

example.net
website.org
cool.com

You also have one server and a Cloudron account.

Could you do the following: Run 3 different websites on the same Cloudron? For example,

Setup example.net with a Discourse forum, Website.org with a NodeBB forum and Ghost on cool.com?

The update went very well. No problems. With Cloudron, I didn't even expect any problems.

Thank you, Cloudron team, for this great software!

It looks like Cloudron wasn't entered as a candidate. Lets hope it wins in 2023!

I can see a benefit for using it in small-scale industrial kitchens or perhaps in community kitchens but other than that, ¯_(ツ)_/¯

From the website:

Waste less!

Except time that is

Mmm, as far as I can see Cloudron can absolutely address TWO clients categories, which are BUSINESSES and FAMILIES, think about it so that app would just be fantastic to add for that utility, and that said even for business for lists of supply needs etc. ...
Andy

Yes, families! This is one of the main reasons I hope that Odoo might be supported on Cloudron: to help families co-ordinate.

I love that Grocy can suggest recipes according to one's inventory. Maybe it will prioritize according to use-by date.

Please make it more clear which part of the config files needs to be edited by providing a worked example in the first time run section.

It should be a policy to include a worked example for instructions.
