Member Perks 🎉

Along with the comfort of knowing you'll be offsetting some of my server and coffee costs, the various levels of membership on the site also come with a few perks.

Note: Accessing the perks below requires a unique member ID e-mailed to each user upon signup. IDs should not be shared with other users.

Newsletter Insights

Membership Required: Supporter or Insider

While the content featured in Self-Host Weekly will always remain freely available to the public, Supporters and Insiders can unlock additional insights and functionality when browsing an issue's software activity:


Full-Text Newsletter RSS Feed

Custom Icon Colors

Membership Required: Supporter or Insider

Supporters and Insiders can use the link below to leverage cloud infrastructure to customize icon colors from selfh.st/icons to their liking.

To colorize an icon, replace <member-id> with your unique ID, <icon-name> with the name of the icon, and <hex-color-code> with a six-digit hex color code (minus the '#'):

🔵
https://icons.slfh.st/<member-id>/<icon-name>/<hex-color-code>

For example, the link for a purple BookStack icon would look like this:

https://icons.slfh.st/1234567890/bookstack/a96ade

Note: Only icons with a light SVG version can be colorized.


Cloud Sync for Directory Bookmarks (Coming Soon)

Membership Required: Insider

The selfh.st/apps directory of self-hosted software currently leverages local browser storage to store bookmarked apps for users who'd like to revisit their findings at a later time.

I'm currently building a hosted storage backend that will allow subscribed members to sync and access their bookmarked apps from any device. Stay tuned!
