## Description

Cloud Seeder by IPv6rs is a cross-platform desktop application written in Go with a Fyne GUI that simplifies self-hosting by deploying pre-configured server appliances as Podman containers. Users download the native installer for their OS (Windows, macOS, Linux), create an IPv6.rs account for external static IPs, enter their domain and credentials, and launch appliances like Mastodon, Nextcloud, Jellyfin, Ghost, Gitea, and 30+ others with one click. The app handles automated updates, runs containers on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS base with security hardening (sshd disabled, syslog disabled, minimal capabilities), and requires Podman pre-installed. It is licensed under the custom COOLER license which restricts commercial use by enterprises with >$1M revenue.
