@joshualevi.ai: Seven apps you pay for every month, and the repo that does the same job on hardware you already own. 1. Stirling-PDF: fifty plus PDF tools in one place, edit, merge, sign, redact, OCR and convert, without the file leaving your machine 2. syncthing: continuous file sync straight between your own devices, no account and nothing in the middle 3. AFFiNE: docs, whiteboard and tables on one canvas, described by its makers as an alternative for Notion and Miro 4. bruno: an API client that keeps collections as plain files in a folder, offline only, and they have written down that cloud sync is never coming 5. KeePassXC: one encrypted file you keep anywhere, with browser integration, passkeys and TOTP, and it imports straight from 1Password 6. DocuSeal: drag twelve kinds of field onto a PDF, send it, get a verifiable signature back. Their own line is open source DocuSign alternative 7. harper: a grammar checker that runs on your machine in milliseconds, written because everything you type into Grammarly is sent to Grammarly Licenses differ per project and a couple have a paid tier for teams, so check the one you plan to run. Save this and own one of them this weekend. #opensource #selfhosted #claudecode #github #ai
