something I've been making for the past 5 yearsthe project: https://github.com/9001/copyparty/watch this video on the demoserver: https://a.ocv.me/pub/demo/ ...

I made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I’ve been making for the past 5 years.

The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github… not sure how well that went, but hey :D

This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.

    You made this on your phone on the bus ride to and from work.

    I cleaned the cat box yesterday and considered that an accomplishment.

    Fuck.

    Put out some in-depth docker instructions and this will be common use in a month. Good work.

    Your readme looks super in depth, thanks for that! I haven’t watched the video yet but will later.

    I didn’t see it mentioned from a quick glance, but is either sftp or ftps supported?

    Hello!

    Its been just about a year since someone forwarded this post to me, and I just want to say, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE COPYPARTY

    I’ve kinda started using it for everything. It may have gotten out-of-hand…

    A short list:

    • I use it as the primary file sharing server for a small community I help run
    • I use it as a personal file storage system with search (I wrote a custom plug-in for it that adds content-based search via meilisearch)
    • Perhaps most-unhinged, I started using it the primary network-based file system on my LAN. It has so many more useful features for this than NFS, SSHFS, and Samba that it just became the obvious choice. I set up a webDAV share with a username/password and then mount it via systemd-mount and rclone, and its been working shockingly well.

    Thank you so much for making copyparty, and thank you for posting this <3

      @cyclicircuit @tripflag I loved copyparty, but my non-technical users sadly found it confusing. Even with White-Gold-Theme-For-Copyparty.

      I want to take the copyparty backend and glue on the frontend from the (now-archived) File Browser project…

    Is there a way to help translate the UI.

    I would like to help translate it into Danish.
