What is a service you host you never knew you needed? (k.fe.derate.me)

I think everybody on here is constantly keeping an eye out for what to host next. Sometimes you spinup something which chugs along nicely but sometimes you find out you've been missing out.

For me it's not very refreshing or new: Paperless-ngx. Never thought I would add all my administration to it. But it's great. I probably can't find the thing I need, but I should have a record of every mail or letter I've gotten. Close second is Wanderer. But I would like to have a little bit more features like adding recorded routes to view speed and compare with previous walks. But that's not what it is intended for.

What is that service for you?

KDE Connect masterrace represent!

I love KDE Connect but I can't figure out how to get it to work at work. Probably some firewall thing. It works fine at home, but can't find my phone at work.

Definitely firewall things. Do you connect your personal phone to your work's Wi-Fi? I would really not.

No I'm trying to use it with my work phone. I can't connect my personal phone to the work wifi since it needs a certificate (802.1x) but there's a separate guest network I can use if needed. Guest network is entirely isolated - different hardware, different backhaul, different IP range.
