[Project] 0807 - a self-hosted ephemeral file host with no accounts and a Tor onion service (0807.st)

I run 0807, a small self-hosted file host. Drop a file, get a short link, and choose when it disappears.

What it does:

No account, no ads, no trackers
Auto-delete by time (1 hour up to 30 days, or never) or after a set number of downloads
Optional password protection on files and on text notes
Files up to 20 GB, with 16 TB of storage behind it
Reachable over Tor through an onion service
Text notes with the same self-destruct and password options
A few file types are blocked for safety (exe, bat, scripts, and similar)

PS: there is no end-to-end encryption, and that is deliberate. The server can read what is stored.

I want to be able to take illegal uploads down when they get reported, CSAM in particular.

End-to-end encryption would make the server blind to its own contents, which is great for privacy but would also stop me from acting on those reports.

If you need real secrecy, encrypt the file before you upload it. The password option is there for casual privacy (not as protection from me or from whoever might get into the server.)

The code is open, and I host it the same way I host the files, on my own server instead of HERE .

You can read it, propose a change, or open an issue there, no account needed

Happy to answer questions about the setup or take feedback.

Hey, hey, hey! Welcome back @0807.! You've made some changes, polished it up a bit, made it selfhostable. Awesome! I could see this being used 'inhouse'. I'm wouldn't be comfortable exposing this to the general public tho, for obvious reasons. The internet can be a very beneficial tool, but at the same time be a filthy, rotten, cespool. I'd rather not get dirty. I have bookmarked the source files at https://src.0807.st/, and dropped it in my projects folder. Thanks again for sharing your project.

Hi, first of all, thanks for the kind comment, @irmadlad

Yes, you probably saw my old post (which was incomplete) and which I ended up deleting. I’ve been able to add quite a few useful things to the project, and I’ll continue to maintain it and upload updates to the subdomain (src.0807.st)

And of course, I’ll always advise people to run this locally to minimize risk :)

That's totally awesome dude. Is this your first project or maybe your first project you've released?
