Enlightenment. It’s pretty and really fast. Of course you can’t complete with the speed of tile wm. But their development speed is so slow…

I don’t want an exact clone of Instagram server. Only publishing content to my friends instead of strangers is exactly what I want ;)

Btw, how does the others find a new client? Exposing ip to strangers from internet sounds horrible. Can we only allow connecting via links invitation with expiration?

Also check out https://getaether.net/ although this project is dead and it always don’t have enough ppl. They also have to implement a feature for removing illegal content.

I am glad we have Lemmy now.

Syncthing is such a wonderful project. RIP. But for us already being spoiled by syncthing, it might be a good time to self host services to handle, sync and serve our own data like photos, contacts and more.

Maybe it’s too fancy and difficult for you. Take a look for moonlight + sunshine, parsec and their competitors.

Cool idea. I have always looked around to see any alternative for Instagram (server, not client) None of them are satisfied. I hope your app can eventually integrated with immich. For example, adding photos with specific tag will upload to the p2p network with strict group acl.
