• Upcoming Changes to Let's Encrypt Certificates

  Haven’t tried it myself, but this one looks interesting: https://certifytheweb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• We just hit $1M ARR in 4 years. With zero funding

  Always encouraging to see that ideas can work out. I'm not quite managing the "let's build a team" aspect just yet but otherwise similar journey and outcome over a (slightly) longer period. I just wanted to not deal with certificates, now I deal with certificates all day every day lol: https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• TLS Certificate Lifetimes Will Officially Reduce to 47 Days

  Pretty sure this only refers to publicly trusted certs. What percentage of public certs are still being manually managed? I've been in the cert automation industry for 8 years (https://certifytheweb.com) and I do still hear of manual work going on, but the majority of stuff can be automated. For stuff that genuinely cannot be automated (are you sure you're sure) these become monthly maintenance tasks,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• SSL certificate lifetimes are going down. Dates proposed. 45 days by 2027

  This is largely a solved problem. On Windows https://certifytheweb.com has provided automated certificate management for the best part of a decade and we're now branching out into large scale cross-platform tools, for those interested. I was surprised by a customer yesterday who was looking to migrate thousands of manually renewed 1 year certs, I had no idea people were still using 1 yr certs to such a... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Running One-man SaaS for 9 Years

  Thanks :) - yes 90% of users are using the free version. It's a desktop app you install on servers. The API elements it does have are a combination of cloudflare workers, a windows server (for customer portal), linux for community discourse. Peak API use so far is 350M requests per month (was about $46 on cloudflare) but have managed to curtail that a bit. https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• My personal journey learning about prompt-injections and how that influences my use of AI (agents)

  So what about having a stricter separation between data and instructions? Let's look at that using, for example, the Nextcloud AI assistant. Nextcloud-Hub is a self-hosted file storage platform with collaboration tools. It has also an AI Assistant App and guess what, it can summarize text (and much more). I've set it all up with the OpenAI API using the gpt-5-chat-latest model. When I click on any file and... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Nextcloud vs ownCloud: Which File Server to Use?

  Nextcloud and ownCloud share a common ancestor. In 2016, Nextcloud's founder (Frank Karlitschek, who also founded ownCloud) forked ownCloud to create Nextcloud, taking most of the developer community with him. Since then, the projects have diverged significantly. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: What's your favorite self-hosted application?

  Previously Nextcloud [1], currently bewCloud [2]. Full disclosure: I created bewCloud as a simpler, faster, and modern alternative to Nextcloud. They've allowed me to get my Files (including Photos), Calendars, Contacts, and RSS feeds off of Big Tech. [1] https://nextcloud.com [2] https://bewcloud.com. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Apple has locked my Apple ID, and I have no recourse. A plea for help

  I run a nextcloud [1] instance and use it for contacts, calendars, and reminders 1. https://nextcloud.com. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Europe just dropped a cloud rulebook (and it’s actually good)

  This is the same energy behind projects like Gaia-X, Nextcloud, and the open-source revival happening across the continent. It’s not nostalgia for on-prem servers it’s a philosophy: control what you depend on. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago
