I made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I’ve been making for the past 5 years.
The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github… not sure how well that went, but hey :D
This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.

This is insane. I think I’d use ten different applications and still not cover these features. And I can host this. Using a single python file.
I see flake.nix, i install.
I bumped into copyparty the other month when looking for a software that could let me transfer files to a friend with the ability to pause/resume. Didn’t bother with it, tried another software instead. Never really got it to work so I gave up on it.
Bumped into the YouTube video today, decided to give copyparty a shot, damn sir you’ve written a fine piece of software. It’s so easy to get up and configure. The UI is a bit janky, but charming at the same time. Thanks for all the hard work!
“It’s janky. It’s charming. It works. It’s Copyparty.” ®
Ho… Ly… Shit… This is great! The UI is a bit confusing at first but doesn’t take long to get what’s going on. I might even be disappointed with a UI revamp 😁 I can’t believe how much functionality this has. It’s already replacing some processes I have for mounting drives and backing up files. Maybe I missed something, but my only complaint would be the lack of an automatic one-way folder sync in the Party UP! app.
I’m blown away, great job!
Put out some in-depth docker instructions and this will be common use in a month. Good work.
Yup, I tried to run the docker image with the suggested docker command and it errored out for lack of a config file (though it did offer a fix in the logs for mounting the current directory as read/write)
Agreed.
Well done! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! And it’s fun to use and has an aesthetic that reminds me of browsing ftp servers back in the day. And these themes?! I love the whimsy mixed with actual usability.
And its a damn good file server so far: fast, easy to use, makes reasonable security choices, and accessible in the ways I want (rclone mount)
Thanks for making the video but also for providing non Youtube link. Maybe there is a PeerTube server that would enjoy hosting it.
Holy shit this is so unbelievably full featured it’s not even funny. This is going to rattle some big names. I wonder how long till they try to shut it down because it’s better than anything commercially available.
I haven’t even tried it yet, but just from the video you can tell it’s going to be insanely good. I’m so impressed.
It’s the first bit of software I’ve seen in a long time where I took one look and immediately thought “Fuck me, I need that!”
I use Unraid for my NAS server and just on the off-chance I checked the Unraid community ‘app store’ and someone’s already created a Docker definition for it, published just today! The hype is real
I’ll be giving this a shot
Is there a way to help translate the UI.
I would like to help translate it into Danish.
Would also be willing to help translate the UI.
this looks amazing! (from the youtube video. also the controls/features seem to be well thought-through) i’ll give it a shot tomorrow
Wo wo wow, is that my man JC Denton ??
“There are two editors in case you hate one of them”
You crack me up !!!
Don’t believe it. This is easily too good to be true.
This looks great, nothing to check it out.
Ok this is too damn cool. Will be checking it out soon, but moving to a new apartment this week so I probably shouldn’t dive into new distractions just yet…
OMG I just posted this to lemmy and saw it had already been posted. Great work! Amazing video!!
