Squid VS pipedream

On a technical point, you might be able to get away with just using Squid for the proxy, with pretty much default settings.

http://www.squid-cache.org

I used to use that years ago (not with Netflix though) running from a data centre, using an ssh (autossh) tunnel to reach it securely.

Worked pretty well, aside from the extra latency due to the packets having to go an extra half way around the world. ;)

I recommend trying a transparent proxy like Squid. There are many analytics tools for Squid logs. Squid can generate TLS certificates on the fly to inspect secure websites but you'll have to generate and install a CA certificate and key into Squid. You'll also have to import the CA certificate on any machine accessing the internet through the Squid proxy. Squid has the added bonus of caching content to speed up web browsing and reduce data usage.

I “invented” IPFS when I though “wouldn’t it be nice if we could combine Squid-Cache with BackupPC

A couple of dedicated server-side resource caching solutions have emerged over the years: Memcached, Varnish, Squid, etc. Other solutions are less focused on web resource caching and more generic, e.g., Redis or Hazelcast.

Web caching (more techical, probably not useful) there squid-cache

Also, the fact it is distributed by HTTP allow companies (and ISPs) to cache content in Squid servers (http://www.squid-cache.org/). And this is quite a feature!

If your router is compatible with custom firmware (Tomato or DD-WRT) you can flash it and use the logging features of those platforms. Otherwise no there isn't really an "app or software" that can do this, you need a piece of hardware that sits between the LAN devices and the internet connection. That can be a full-fledged computer, if you're willing to use it as firewall or router (pfSense), DNS server (PowerDNS) or proxy server (Squid).

No I don’t think so. You probably want n8n if you’re keen on self-hosting.

Not sure if IFTTT has a plugin but I suspect not, I've currently got a Pipedream feature request that they are now adding it to their platform (it's not ready yet) but you'll still need to request the API access yourself. Pipedream: Google My Business Feature Request (I am NebularNerd)

We noticed that too and thought scripts could be the universal layer for integrations, so we built a hub for it https://hub.windmill.dev

Pipedream (which is probably Automatisch main competitor) also has a repo full of integrations: https://github.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream. Their format is a bit more specific than Windmill.

Hopefully, we all agree on a format and differentiate ourselves on the quality of the orchestration, flow capabilities, performance etc ...

Yup it's something that's been on the backlog for a bit and we're trying to solve for.

Here's the issue if you'd like to follow: https://github.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream/issues/193

It is possible to make a custom source for ForwardEmail, and then emit 1 action per row, but that requires writing code outside of the GUI.

Definitely hear you on this pain and we're working on it.

But you can run custom Node.js code anywhere you need it, extending any of the built-in actions or adding your own. This is where Pipedream shines. You can quickly transition from a no-code workflow to a Node.js serverless function as you need more complex logic.
