Show HN: I built a self-hosted status page and monitoring tool for my projects
Hey mate, I'm using https://healthchecks.io/ for heartbeat monitoring my crons. It's been working flawlessly for quite some time now. The UI is super clean and easy to navigate. It's also free up to 20 monitored jobs. Note - I'm not in any way related to that project.

Webhooks suck, but here are alternatives
In fact, your platform (https://healthchecks.io/) is a prime example of where running customer wasm would be really excellent.
Instead of sending webhooks out to customer configured URLs, you could run a Wasm environment to execute customer code. Off hand, a good use case here is to do further inspection of the event before it gets sent off to some other system - maybe there are cases where you send false-positives and needlessly trigger external system alerts. The customer Wasm could do more introspection on the healthcheck event and make a more informed decision about how to proceed.

Prioritize IPv4 over IPv6 in dual stack
Because of this block on the router, and the fact that IPv6 connections are by default preferred over IPv4, many things on the system now cannot access the internet. the only things that can access the internet are for accessing servers that ONLY support IPv4 like my mail.smpt2go or my uptime monitoring scripts for healthchecks.io.
- Ask HN: How do you monitor your systemd services?
- Show HN: Peeng – like Pingdom, but the other way around and simpler

Managing re-occurring tasks - Daily/weekly/monthly
We use a heartbeat system. Basically the monitoring continuously sends an alert to a healtcheck system. If that heartbeat fails, PagerDuty sends an alert to the oncall.

What type of app have you been searching for and just doesn't exist?
Selfhosted, easy to install and setup, low resource monitoring and alerting system: Something like hybrid of Healthchecks and Cabot. Able to test with ping, ports and custom scripts (eg. to fetch and grep website for some content), then have Dashboard to show device state and history and integrations to send alerts.
