Hey there! I built an open-source tool called Snapify, which is designed to make screen recording sharing a breeze, just like Loom, but with the added benefit of being completely open-source.

Let’s say you quickly want to get a message across, there are three main ways:

  1. Get into a meeting
  2. Write a wall of text
  3. Share a quick recording

Recordings will look like this (new link): https://snapify.it/share/clk3mpgnu0003mj0f042964wg

I’d love to hear your feedback and ideas on how I may be able to improve the app. Is anyone here using Loom?

Your project looks interesting. Do you have plans to give snapify the ability to federate and share with others?

Could you explain what you mean by “federate and share with others”?

Well, to use the ActivityPub protocol and operate like Lemmy and Mastodon for example. Also see Pixelfed and PeerTube as examples.

That is not something I have planned yet. But feel free to create a feature request: https://github.com/MarconLP/snapify/issues/new

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
