Introducing EthioDeploy

Deploying applications shouldn't require hours of server setup, DevOps knowledge, or an international credit card. We built this to make hosting simple for developers, startups, and businesses.

Connect your GitHub repository, push your code, and your application is online in seconds.

Here's what you get with EthioDeploy:

1. Automatic stack detection
Works out of the box with Next.js, React, Node.js, Python, and other popular frameworks.

2. Preview deployments
Every branch and pull request gets its own live preview URL so you can review changes before they go live.

3. Managed PostgreSQL and Redis
Create production-ready databases for your projects in just a few clicks.

4. Custom domains
Connect your own domain with free SSL certificates.

5. Built-in analytics
Track traffic and monitor your applications from a single dashboard.

6. Built for Ethiopia
Get started for free and pay in Birr. No international card required.

A friend of mine got his phone stolen, and apparently that wasn’t a good enough excuse to stop replying to my Telegram messages

So I built TeleLite , a small, self-hosted Telegram client for feature phones.

The problem is that just telling someone to “use Telegram Web” doesn’t really work on these phones. Modern Telegram Web relies heavily on JavaScript and a pretty heavy web app, which is a lot to ask from an old Java phone or a low-power device.

You can access Telegram through:
A lightweight web client
A J2ME .jar app for old Java phones
A KaiOS app(not tested because the emulator didnt work well)

It’s text-only, lightweight, and designed for those “my smartphone is lost/stolen/broken” situations god forbid 😭
It might actually come in handy someday, so take it, self-host it, break it, improve it, whatever.
Would love to know what you guys think 👀
