Chainlink (LINK) – The Blockchain Oracle Giant

Chainlink allows smart contract developers to receive a wide variety of off-chain data, with the most commonly used features being receiving off-chain randomness and off-chain pricing data. Integrating your smart contracts with Chainlink provides a unique set of potential security vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit; here are the common vulnerabilities that smart contract developers & auditors need to look out for.

In some way, I'd also put Chainlink in that category since they allow to access open world data on-chain and making dapps more relevant as a result.

Smart contracts have revolutionized various industries by enabling the automation of agreements and transactions in a secure and decentralized manner. However, for smart contracts to reach their full potential, they need access to real-world data and external systems. This is where Chainlink comes into play.

I would suggest the use of an oracle like chainlink. Link: https://chain.link - I don't know exactly what your specific requirements are since I cannot review your code but a thirdparty oracle sounds like it could offer you at least some direction.

🥁 Introducing Co:OPERATE @ EthCC by Celo with Co:HOST Chainlink!

Etherisc has built a platform (Generic Insurance Framework) for decentralized insurance applications. We use blockchain technology to help make the purchase and sale of insurance more efficient, enable lower operational costs, provide greater transparency into the industry and democratize access to reinsurance. We’ve been around since 2016, have many high-profile collaborators (including Chainlink) and are proud of the innovative applications of the parametric insurance products built on our platform, including travel delay, crop and carbon credit protection.

As well as feeding real-world data to smart contracts, oracles can be used to monitor other blockchains and pass information about them between networks. Chainlink has made progress in this direction, with their Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). This enables the creation of multi-chain apps. The protocol is maintained by a decentralized network of nodes. However, this is unlikely to be as secure as the chains between which messages are being sent.

Chainlink is not a blockchain - it's a "heterogeneous network", i.e. an open-source protocol for building oracle networks. Chainlink is 'blockchain-agnostic', aimed at connecting any chain to any API/external system and supporting interoperability between chains. Besides ETH, it has existing or planned integrations with: ONE, ADA, XTZ, MATIC, HBAR, DOT, BSC, ATOM, LUNA, etc.

The OnlyOfffice desktop app is a pretty good and free alternative to Microsoft Office Suite. You can simply install it on your local machine for offline access.

OnlyOfffice is also self-hostable as a web app for a cloud alternative to Google Sheets.

Filebrowser is a self-hostable alternative to Google Drive.

There's a pull request open to integrate OnlyOffice with Filebrowser for self-hosted google-drive + google docs.

For strictly local use, Google's Nearby share is technically FOSS but the documentation is basically non-existent and a proper Linux implementation is not here yet. Alternatives aren't hard to find though, with Mint's Warpinator or KDE Connect having worked well for me.

For non-local use (everything out of Bluetooth range), you almost have to trust a third party and it really depends on your use case. Want to send your friend a file or host pictures of your birthday for multiple people to download? For the former magic wormhole works great, for the later you could almost spin up a nextcloud or similar (personally I like https://github.com/filebrowser/filebrowser ). Want to regularly send files from device 1 to device 2? Now classic sync solutions like syncthing become really viable.

If everything else fails, FTP always has your back

I have been looking for a file browser which can run in game mode and is reasonably user friendly for simple file operations (copy/delete/rename, etc). Most people recommend Dolphin. it does work but there are issues: the color scheme looks really weird in game mode. context menu does not like game mode, either. Got file browser working (https://github.com/filebrowser/filebrowser) in game mode, which essentially an Edge app accessing a web server on localhost (running as user service). It took some time to set up but the end result is exactly what I would like to have.

File Browser - For access to the files on my NAS

filebrowser has user management plus sharing capabilities

Filebrowser suppports multiple shares with different expiration dates. It also offers file previews and generates QR Codes for the shares.

NextCloud is great for this, but if we're talking sharing files from your sync'd project collection, I'd probably instead recommend Filebrowser. You can point it to the same data store that syncthing is using and it'll make it easy to share the projects. Note that in order to do this you'll need to open up and expose filebrowser publicly. The simplest way to do this would probably be a cloudflare tunnel and for sharing files like this ad-hoc I don't see any issues with their TOS. For things like SyncThing though you'll still wanna do conventional port forwarding. the DIY approach instead of CloudFlare tunnel would be to port forward, set up a dynamic dns record, and set up letsencrypt certs

Why don't you try File browser? (https://filebrowser.org/) I also looked for things you looked for. But I didn't find anything.
