    I made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I've been making for the past 5 years.

    The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github... not sure how well that went, but hey 😄

    This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.

    The video are amazing. It's entertaining and explains everything so it's easily understood.

      This is cool. Idk if it’s just me but the h.264 version of your video has no sound!

      man... that's really unexpected, I went with h264+mp3 which should be the most conservative / broadly-supported combination you could possibly use, yet still (ノ ゚ヮ゚)ノ ~┻━┻

      what webbrowser / device / player are you using?

        Are China Parties like Tupperware Parties, where friends get together and one shills a pyramid scheme? That's what CP is, right?

          sure! my implementation is really basic, just the stuff that's needed to make the clients i've tested happy, so there's probably still clients that won't be able to connect (And i'll fix those as soon as I hear about them!)

          httpcli.py is the http methods handler, and the webdav-specific handlers are all next to eachother, propfind // proppatch // lock // unlock // mkcol // and there's also put for the uploads, but that's not entirely webdav-specific, just webdav-aware.

          Thanks! So you put in the displayname prop even if it’s not set by the client. For the life of me, I can’t figure out what that prop is supposed to be in the spec. It calls it a live prop, but doesn’t give an explanation or an equivalent HTTP header.

          I love how you named the error for 400 statuses, “Pebkac”! xD

              I agree but it's still in an early development state. Not really usable for everyday work let alone most people never heard about it 😅 But yeah still cool to mention it under "modern" browsers. I wish them good luck with the first alpha next year. I hope it'll be successful.

                  Thank you so very much. I needed to transfer some files locally yesterday and didn't have a NAS set up. So I thought I would quickly set up a samba share on my pop-os media server so my spouse (windows) and I (mint) could swap/store files on the fly in the future. It took me 25 minutes and I almost gave up because my config file was having issues.

                  This looks sooooo much nicer. May every road rise up to meet you

                    This is me browsing slrpnk.net using the voyager app,on iOS latest version on iPhone 14 Pro, it then opens it in whatever built in player the app uses. Other versions work fine though. This app has me excited as I consider starting self hosting!

                          Holy shit this is so unbelievably full featured it's not even funny. This is going to rattle some big names. I wonder how long till they try to shut it down because it's better than anything commercially available.

                              I haven't even tried it yet, but just from the video you can tell it's going to be insanely good. I'm so impressed.

                              It's the first bit of software I've seen in a long time where I took one look and immediately thought "Fuck me, I need that!"

                              I use Unraid for my NAS server and just on the off-chance I checked the Unraid community 'app store' and someone's already created a Docker definition for it, published just today! The hype is real

                              I'll be giving this a shot

                                  Also, it’s like Wordpress, growing new slow features you’ll never need with each new release.

                                  They recently recieved a "Blauer Engel" certificate for nextcloud-server. Iirc that seal requires the user to be able to choose what he wants. So new features are OK but they have to be optional.
                                  That certificate is handed out by a german government Institution. And very recently they started handing it out to software too, with nextcloud beeing the first BIG reciever.

                                    Thanks for making the video but also for providing non Youtube link. Maybe there is a PeerTube server that would enjoy hosting it.

                                          I made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I've been making for the past 5 years.

                                          The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github... not sure how well that went, but hey 😄

                                          This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.

                                          Ok this is too damn cool. Will be checking it out soon, but moving to a new apartment this week so I probably shouldn't dive into new distractions just yet...
