Show HN: We built an end-to-end encrypted alternative to Google Photos
589 by vishnumohandas | 217 comments on Hacker News.
Hello HN, Over the last year we've been building ente[1], a privacy-friendly, easy-to-use alternative to Google Photos. We've so far built Android[2][3], iOS[4], web[5] apps that encrypt your files and back them up in the background. You can access these across your devices, and share them with other ente users, end-to-end encrypted. You can also use our electron app[6] to maintain a local copy of your backed up files. We've built a fault-tolerant data replication layer that replicates your data to two different storage providers in the EU. We will be providing additional replicas as an addon in the future. We're relying on libsodium[7] for performing all cryptographic operations. Under the hood it uses XChaCha20 and XSalsa20 for encryption and Argon2 for key derivation. We have documented our architecture[8] and open-sourced our clients[9]. We did a soft-launch on r/degoogle[10] sometime ago, and have since then ironed out issues and polished the product. But we are far from where we want to be in terms of features (object and face detection, location clustering, image filters, ...) and user experience. We are hoping to use this post as an opportunity to collect feedback from fellow hackers. If there's anything we can do better, please let us know, we would like to. Best, - Vishnu, Neeraj, Abhinav [1]: https://ente.io [2]: https://ente.io/apk [3]: https://ift.tt/3BptQnU [4]: https://ift.tt/3sU3aIO [5]: https://web.ente.io [6]: https://ift.tt/3t4idje [7]: https://ift.tt/2WrzG9r [8]: https://ift.tt/3jpTq5S [9]: https://ift.tt/3zrzLId [10]: https://ift.tt/3BoGkvI...

Show HN: With a 9-5 job and 2 kids I have finally finished my first MVP

Hello HN crowd. I worked on this project on weekends and evenings. I'm excited I made it into a presentable MVP, and it is so satisfying. I would like to get some honest feedback from this great community. I made https://ift.tt/3ykaazF , to scratch a personal itch. I myself trade options as a hobby, and I didn't find a screener that satisfies my need to be able to explore raw options data freely and without preset constraints. So I made this app that allows playing with options market data and extract interesting opportunities. The techs used: - Laravel + Jquery + Mysql - Tradier API for market data - DigitalOcean for hosting - OVH for domain name It costs me 5$/month to run the website. I'll be glade to continue if it proves to be a viable product in the long run and maybe I will take it to the next level and try monetize it. Note: the app is not suitable for phone screens yet, although this is a planned feature.
