A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev
Filestash — A Dropbox-like file manager that connects to a range of protocols and platforms: S3, FTP, SFTP, Minio, Git, WebDAV, Backblaze, LDAP and more.

Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
I made https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash out of the need to collaborate on org mode documents with non emacs users. Once the first release was done, I got to reflect on the infamous top comment of the Dropbox HN to make an attempt at abstracting the storage aspect of Dropbox so those org document could be made stored on a FTP server, SFTP, S3, ....

Ask HN: Experience using your user's Google Drive instead of a database?
> we need an abstraction for just this. "Bring your own storage"
I made exactly this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash and there's an API from which you can abstract any kind of storage: S3, SFTP, FTP, GIT, WebDav, Samba, Local FS, NFS, Backblaze, Storj, Artifactory, .... There's even some funky ones like Mysql from which you have an abstraction where first level folders are databases, second level folders are tables and files are the actual rows

Let's learn how modern JavaScript frameworks work by building one
Yes, I rewrote my react app onto vanilla JS using nothing else than rxjs, didn't have the time to document it all yet but it looks like this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/blob/master/pub...

Found the ultimate Nextcloud / Owncloud replacement!
I'm not familiar with Cloudreve, but FileStash is a similar application often recommended on this subreddit.

HTML Web Components
I do use them on my OSS work (https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/tree/master/pub...) which is used by many thousands of people

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash
This is what I wish Dropbox was, a simple layer that make interacting with your FTP server easy so nobody has to own your data. The end game is both to be feature complete with Dropbox and be able to change every aspect of the application through plugin so everyone can get out what they want from it.

Meta pledges Three-Year sponsorship for Python if GIL removal is accepted
> but I don't think its the companies responsibility to give back to open source just because they use it
As someone who does quite a bit of OSS, the reality is most people are asking for things but aren't willing to pay for it. Take Microsoft, I had one of their employee asking me to support their azure stuff: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/issues/180. When I found out the dude was actually employed by Microsoft, he started to talk some nonsense and ended up running away.

Migrating from AWS to Fly.io
Fly Postgres is just a Fly.io app. You can see the source code for it right here:
https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha
It has some direct `flyctl` integration (which is also open source), but it's not doing anything you can't do yourself if you want.
-
Fly.io – Free Postgres Databases (and free storage volumes, up to 3GB total)
We do not! You have full administrative access to your postgres. You can create offsite replicas, or even fork the Postgres app we use and deploy over your Fly.io installed postgres: https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha
RDS preventing external streaming replicas is the most annoying thing ever.

AWS Global Accelerator is really fast and good
Our Postgres is not an RDS replacement. Lots of devs use RDS with Fly. In fact, Postgres on Fly is just a normal Fly app: https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha
Ultimately, we think devs are better off if managed database services come from companies who specialize in those DBs. First party managed DBs trend towards mediocre, all the interesting Postgres features come from Heroku/Crunchy/Timescale/Supabase.
So we're "saving" managed Postgres for one of those folks. For the most part, they're more interested in giving AWS money because very large potential customers do. At some point, though, we'll be big enough to be attractive to DB companies.
-
Globally Distributed Postgres
Our postgres clusters are just a Fly app: https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha
You could run your own PG by modifying that app. Right now we're calling it "automated" and not managed, though. All alerts about health and other issues go straight to customers, we don't have DBAs that will touch these things yet.
