imgproxy VS Nginx Proxy Manager

We use imgproxy which does 2->4 and all you need to do is change the URL on your site.

You should also be using a variety of formats. Unless you need support for old browsers and transparency in the same image, don't use PNG. Stick with jpg, webp and avif. You can setup something like imgproxy to automatically resize and change format of images, or even fit into the space requirements you set.

If you look for something universal, you can try API for image optimization (e.g. imgproxy). However, the mechanism is different from build-time optimization.

Hey everyone, seeking some feedback about how to improve our project, imgproxy, an open source image processing tool.It’s designed to reduce costs and remove pricey requirements for all saved images to conform to specific formats. You can read the full list here if you’re curious: https://github.com/imgproxy/imgproxy In addition to crucial image processing stuff (like resizing, cropping, rotating), it can also sign urls, add watermarks, and a ton of other things.A ton of developers use it, and that’s great. We’re trying to improve it further, so wanted to put out the feelers and see if there is anyone using it (or a similar tool) who could suggest some additional features (or tell about the essential features of your current image processing tool).

Now signup for Vultr and make a $5 instance and put imgproxy on it. Setup a subdomain for images in Cloudflare and point it to the imgproxy IP.

I discovered these 3 amazing projects recently:

Cryptpad, essentially google docs/sheets/forms e2e encrypted. It does include collaboration. https://github.com/cryptpad/cryptpad

Immich, google photos self hostable, with share options https://github.com/immich-app/immich

Nginxproxymanager manages certificates and proxies to self hosted stuff through nginx https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager

Great self hosting stuff!

Nginx Proxy Manager

Take a look at NginxProxyManager. This would give you the opportunity to put everything in the form of service1.domain.com , service2.domain.com ,etc.

Prime example: Nginx Proxy Manager is often recommended in the sub. The latest minor release came with breaking changes (so already ignoring semver). I bet you many people were running on latest and then had broken stuff: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/releases/tag/v2.10.0

I started looking into how to make add dynamic IPs to NPM access lists. I came across a couple of GitHub issues (1, 2) on the topic. It looks like people have solved the problem, but not in a complete way without modifying the NPM docker image. I did not want to do that, so decided looking into writing a separate script.

Here is the (NPM) GitHub issue where the "fork of a fork" image came into existence (lepresidente/nginx-proxy-manager). It has some interesting discussions about the challenges of having NPM and CrowdSec coexist and cooperate.

Agree with this, myQ is such a dumpster fire. It needs to have an the ability to be managed over the local network instead of requiring the garage door and app connect to their server.

My very first experience with myQ was figuring out that their IP blocklist provider, brightcloud, blocks anything with the word "proxy" - including the default "it works" page for Nginx Proxy Manager [1]. And they have no way of overriding this to actually provide service if someone turns out to be a legitimate customer.

Edit: If you're using Nginx Proxy Manager there seems to be open PR for support for proxy protocol https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/pull/1882 however in the comments there's a name of repository with this PR merged.
