  • I think if you open-source it now, a subset of people might be willing to take a look at it, some might even contribute to the code.

    Also, a majority of people, here, hate LLMs. Many are fine with locally hosted ones, but everyone hates the big tech.

    Your app relies on cloud hosted services, like for LLMs and messaging. Telegram is not FOSS, not even encrypted. We are self-hosters, this is just a small app which links cloud services to you.

    Also, the whole post content is AI-generated, probably your app is vibe-coded too. Considering you’re not a professional dev, how can you claim that the app you made is “safe”?

    There are so many things wrong with your post, and that’s why you’re downvoted so much.

  • Your laptop has 500gb of storage. Start by trying to use it as a NAS. A simple SMB share or SFTP share would be good enough.

    You can offload unimportant data to it save storage on your phone or other machines.

    You can share this storage with your household, make it like a photos backup. But at this stage all the backups will need to be made manually. Once you get the hang of basic networking. You could consider hosting immicjy, which is like a google photos alternative with native apps for automatic backups.

    As someone else suggest, jellyfin is also a good idea. Your laptop does not need to be good enough to transcode the films/shows, if they are in simple formats which your TV, phone or other clients can decode. 500gb can hold a lot of films.

    Other services like hosting an email is not easy. It it not dependent on you machine only, but also on your ISP. Most ISPs in India do not allow port-forwarding.

    Just learn the basics about networking, maybe about docker or podman. YouTube has tons of resources, like DBTech.
