Now it is up... It can send messages, it can let you record messages/voice, video... It encrypts messages in the browser with personalised key and it let you even set a password to further protect the message (unrecoverable if you forget it as password never send back to my server).

Well... I did it, I have an app after a few days and I want to make it free/pay as you want for people to send messages/voice, video to love ones beyond the grave but now I have no idea if it would be practical for me to host it and who would even trust a random person's vibe coded app on internet... And how can I keep it running even after I die lol ... What do you think? Any advice?

What I sometimes do is to use my phone connecting to the free wifi and simultaneously hotspotting it to my laptop - It feels better to have something in between blocking random nmap scans.

Anyone else doing this? Is there other tricks you do?

We, at ClickHouse, love big data and it would be super cool download and analyse patterns of all these data & provide some tooling to help with combatting this wide spread issue.

Shameless plug: I built small file sharing tool with encryption in browser and added a "tunnel" feature to make it easier for sharing between personal devices : https://www.relaysecret.com/tunnel/

The aes256 key is derived from hashing the tunnel name but never sent back to backend as it is behind anchor tag and the tunnel name is derived from substring of this hash. It is quite fun to use and share files. The file never lives more than 10 days (bucket lifecycle) but user can reduce this to delete upon download and the code can easily be reviewed (back end is a single lambda function to generate signed url):)

The tool is indeed meant for semi-auto flow to ensure human eye looked at the action being used.

Example:

uses: ncipollo/release-action@440c8c1cb0ed28b9f43e4d1d670870f059653174 #v1.16.0

And for anything that previously had @master, it becomes the following with the hash on the day it was pinned with "master-{date}" as comment:

uses: ravsamhq/notify-slack-action@b69ef6dd56ba780991d8d48b61d94682c5b92d45 #master-2025-04-04

https://github.com/santrancisco/pmw

It has a few "features" which allowed me to go through a repository quickly:

- It prompts user and recommend the hash, it also provides user the url to the current tag/action to double check the hash value matches and review the code if needed

- Once you accept a change, it will keep that in a json file so future exact vesion of the action will be pinned as well and won't be reprompted.

- It let you also ignore version tag for github actions coming from well-known, reputational organisation (like "actions" belong to github) - as you may want to keep updating them so you receive hotfix if something not backward compatible or security fixes.

This way i have full control of what to pin and what not and then this config file is stored in .github folder so i can go back, rerun it again and repin everything.

If only people are not so against camera recording them, i think a rayban meta idea would have been cool but it needs to constantly recording like those car dash cam and when you just shared a perfect funny moment, you can immediately hit save to preserve that moment for later. So many times i wished i recorded the moment my childrens do things or being funny but it was too late.

I love taking photo with phone still and when my wife dress in her favourite coat and the setting is right, i would go back to being the "camera dude" using my best framing technique i learnt to capture the moment, at least the experience from those years did not go to waste.

Last but not least, one of the best purchase i ever done was the insta link wide bluetooth printer... it let me print, sign the date and gift my friends who visit something to take home and put on their fridge to remember the time we spent together.
