Discard
Discard is a set of self-hosted services & privacy frontends. While intended for mostly personal usage, there is (for the most part) nothing preventing others from using them.
For abuse: abuse@discard.no
Any other enquiries: alex@discard.no
Services marked with
are compatible with LibRedirect.
β οΈ Logging: Basic access logging (containing IP addresses, request path, request timestamp and HTTP user agent) is done for each service (standard NGINX access logs).
Logs are automatically rotated (deleted & yeeted) every day (24 hours) by logrotate and only kept temporarily so I can investigate any potential abuse (mostly excessive scraping that causes disruption), but it's something you should be aware of in any regard.
βΉ Exceptions: The Searx (SearXNG) instance - Access logging is completely disabled on this instance.

Notes & Changelog
Updates April 2026:
- April 30th — Gigahost previously announced shutting down their Netherlands location, with a physical server migration to their Norway location. This migration was started on April 29th and completed on April 30th. Eventually Rimgo will be migrated to a different server with a diferent provider, to reduce Discard's reliance on Gigahost's Norway location, but for now it's being left as-is.
Updates September 2025:
- September 28th — Send has been removed from the list and will be shut down in the next few days, mainly due to abuse.
Long story short, I was not really interested in keeping it running, but after a notification that disk was getting filled, I decided enough was enough. Send will be running for at least 3 days, but with upload size limited to 1 byte so that existing uploads are still accessible.
- September 18th — BreezeWiki has been migrated to a different server, hosted with ComputeBox in Germany.
Updates July 2025:
- July 17th — Redlib is now also protected against scrapers by Anubis.
Updates June 2025:
- June 8th — 4get (fourget) has been taken offline.
Updates May 2025:
- May 21st — In my neverending battle against AI scrapers, Rimgo now sits behind Anubis as well. This should (hopefully) not affect direct image embeds, but please contact me if you're having issues. Thank you.
- May 13th — Due to an increasing amount of AI scrapers causing excessive amount of requests, I have added Anubis to sit "in front" of BreezeWiki. Feel free to reach out if you're having issues with this setup.
- May 7th — BreezeWiki has been migrated from HostHatch to Shock Hosting. Same server as 4get. Simply a cost-savings measure :)
Updates March 2025:
- Homepage of discard.no has been updated. Some notes have been removed due to age (since they were 1+ year old). An archived page before these edits can be found in /archived/2025-03-05
- ProxiTok has been taken down as of March 5th, 2025. As far as I know the project isn't really working anymore, but even so TikTok has been blocking my server IPs often anyway.
- Access log rotation has been reduced to happen every 24 hours, instead of every 48 hours.
- Rimgo has been migrated from BuyVM Luxembourg to Gigahost Netherlands.
Public Invidious instances are no longer being provided as of Feb 13th, 2024.
