/r/SelfHosted: What’s wrong with Portainer?]: I do try to keep an eye out for something to use instead of Portainer, but at least for right now that’s what I’m sticking with.
GitHub: EFForg / rayhunter: “Rust tool to detect cell site simulators on an orbic mobile hotspot”
Kali: The Raspberry Pi’s Wi-Fi Glow-Up: I used to have a Pi running Kali, but since I wasn’t using it much I had wiped it. Maybe I’ll get it running again since I should have a spare Pi sitting around somewhere.
GitHub: CervantesSec / cervantes: “Cervantes is an open-source, collaborative platform designed specifically for pentesters and red teams. It serves as a comprehensive management tool, streamlining the organization of projects, clients, vulnerabilities, and reports in a single, centralized location.”
Not that I do much red-teaming, but seeing new tools & posts make me want to start digging into it more. Would especially love to get my CEH, but not sure how feasible that is.
This is a reminder that I’ve been meaning to circle back on this: GitHub: WithSecureLabs / Kanvas: “A simple-to-use IR (incident response) case management tool for tracking and documenting investigations.”
DuckDuckGo: The DuckDuckGo Browser: Fresh New Look, Same Great Protections, AI Optional: I’ve had the mobile app installed for a while but have only really been using it for password generation when creating accounts on mobile; for normal day-to-day I’ve still stuck with Firefox, but maybe time to give the DDG browser some more time.
GitHub: mostafa-wahied / portracker: “A self-hosted, real-time port monitoring and discovery tool.”
/r/SelfHosted: [My HomeServer(-Dashboard) Q3/2025: I had saved this just to see what some others have running, & to see if there’s anything new i might want to run.
/r/SelfHosted: UPDATE! First home Server: Saved for the same reason as above & also just a listing of how \ why things were setup.
GitHub karakeep-app / karakeep: “A self-hostable bookmark-everything app (links, notes and images) with AI-based automatic tagging and full text search”
GitHub: nicolargo / glances: “Glances an Eye on your system. A top/htop alternative for GNU/Linux, BSD, Mac OS and Windows operating systems.”
While looking for a possible Portainer replacement, I’ve also kept an eye out for an overall system management tool, since I have my containers spread across multiple hosts.
