I have a similar setup, I use Caprover as a nicer way to manage docker. You can build whatever you want into the dockerfile then just map the user directory to a local one and port forward where needed.
If you want to run a web app through a domain with SSL then it's trivial to setup a nginx proxy container.
It takes minutes to spin up a new dev environment with everything setup out of the box including environment variables and access tokens.
Congratulations on the launch.
A few months ago a wrote about how I solve this problem (https://www.viadog.com/replacing-environment-variables-aws-s...) and it works nicely for a small team with a small number of projects but this looks like a very nice solution when starting to scale a little bigger.
Good luck going forward!
Hi everyone, I'd like to share Viadog Subscriptions which is my first product. It's targetted towards Shopify/ReCharge shop owners and helps to both increase revenue through upselling and reduce churn through gifting.
I'm happy to answer any questions and also open to feedback.

Wow, pretty inventive! You can get similar devices which plug into a computer and would be a lot easier.
This would be simple for the user to execute but it would very quickly be spotted by the operator as it's all from a single originating MSISDN.
Spreading the load over many users like your latter example would be a lot harder to spot, as would spamming through multiple SMS providers as you're diluting it (but it might also get picked up by the provider e.g. Twilio, MessageBird etc).
My point was that most spam originates from people with SS7 access and not SIM cards. It can also come through low cost SMS providers but is short lived as it's blocked the moment it's discovered or there's a complaint.
Bulk SMS spam would most likely come from someone with direct signalling access and not from individual SIM cards which would be trivial to detect and block by the operator.

I do this too and it's so easy to manage all your local and remote environments from one place, I go one step further and push them to my environment variables too rather than use a dotfile
It is but you've already stepped down this path the moment you moved away from shared or self hosting.
You should take a look at Amplify (
https://aws.amazon.com/amplify/), it will make the whole process considerably less painful, allow you to easily access AppSync (graphql) and Lambda with your code all in one place, then also trigger rebuilds on git commits.
Hi, have you thought about hosting for this yet? I've got a similar site which I originally tried on AWS Amplify but it got too big for the artifact size limit so I opted for S3/Cloudflare instead however build times are slow and more of a manual process currently.
Thanks, I used your article with MATE 19.10 and it worked nicely.
I didn't try your applet but instead heavily customised the i3wm and i3bar configs to my liking, wouldn't go back to a non tiling window manager now.
All it could take is an API call to turn it into an associated phone number.
+1 for Insync, it just works, also allows multiple accounts and works on Linux, something I'm surprised still isn't offered officially by Google.
Stratus are still going (I'm assuming it's the same company, same product, same name) and making fault tolerant hardware like this.
They also offer a lower end product based on two standard servers where all the redundancy is software based with virtual machines.
It's clever kit and looks after a lot of critical infrastructure where downtime isn't an option.
Definitely agree. I'd love to see this integrated into Sendy, it would completely idiot proof the process.
Yeah I did start it but due to the twitter account being brand new it got suspended. Need to warm it up when I get it back.
I made this as a quick and dirty weekend project after spotting a friend post a picture of their house keys online.
I thought I'd try and raise awareness of how easily keys can be copied from photos. That combined with geocoded tweets is just asking for trouble.
It's not mobile friendly unfortunately.
