Thanks for your interest! I am not sure if I want to host a public advertised instance at the moment. Right now many Tumblr posts are broken because their RSS feeds are lacking a lot of information (lacking images, video, ...), so I am bit more hesitant because of that as well.
I was considering hosting a cache-limited instance that would be restarted daily, but I haven't looked into that in detail.
And finally, I do have my own instance running, but it is not (and should not be) advertised publicly. For now I recommend people to host their own, I tried to make that as simple as possible.
Hello,
Would you have changed your mind since then ?
Thanks
Hi @KaKi87, I have not unfortunately. I have looked at using fly.io or render.com to host a public instance, but they seem to require having a credit card, which I do not have (and don't want to).
If you find a service with a free or very cheap low-usage tier (<1eur/month) and support for paying with something other than a credit card then I'd be happy to try that out!
I don't understand : you said you have your own instance running so why don't you want to just share that one ? Thanks
why don't you want to just share that one
Because I am not ready to host it as a public service, with the level of traffic and attention (and potential security concerns as a server admin) that might bring.
But as I said above: If you have a server of your own or you want to run it locally on your machine, it should be quite easy to do as I designed it to be easy to run.
If you find it risky to publish your instance, how could I publish one of my own ?
This is not about numblr
itself, it's about hosting any public service. Feel free to host your instance or don't, I find numblr
useful, but as the README says:
Very scrappy, but usable and useful for its original author. Please host your own!

If we're talking about https://surge.sh/, that looks like it is frontend-only and also only for Node.js. numblr
is written in Golang and pretty much backend-only (with some progressive enhancements in plain JavaScript), so that won't work.
Either way, there's already Priviblur. You might like to put it on your README if you want.

I forgot, shit, uhh how about heikou or whatever jts called
I commend a lot your efforts an open-source frontend for Tumblr! Thank you very much for standing up for it. On a kind gesture, I had recommended your work for the libredirect repository. Though the developers there are open for implementing your front-end into their extension, they regard minimum requirement of one active public instance. I have yet to see one as publicized in your page.
Would it be possible for you to host one?
