Thanks! It was initially created to be the backend for the next version of my other open source project - Presentator v3 (https://github.com/presentator/presentator).
You could read more at https://github.com/presentator/presentator/issues/183, but to summarize - I wanted something that could be self hosted with almost no additional setup and no dependency on 3rd party services.
It looks like you put a lot of work into this, what was the motivation behind this project? Did you not like the existing solutions available?
