Summary

The Good Karma Kit A Docker Compose project to run on servers with spare CPU, disk, and bandwidth.Help the world by contributing your unused computing power to good causes. Quickstart Download docker-compose.yml into an empty directory (or clone this repo) Edit the docker-compose.yml file to fill in config vars, tune resource limits, or comment out containers you don’t want to run Start the containers with docker-compose up Finish setting up some projects through their respective web dashboards exposed on localhost (see below) curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ArchiveBox/good-karma-kit/main/docker-compose.yml # edit docker-compose.yml to fill in config, tune limits, or disable containers mkdir -p data docker-compose up Next steps: Check the status of everything using htop Or use the web dashboards / leaderboards for each service listed below. Overview Have some space computing power and want to donate it to a good cause? How about 10+ good causes at once? ♻️ put an under-utilized system to good use 🚲 use as much or as little CPU/RAM/DISK as you want ✨ 100% more soul warming than mining 📈 geek out over your CPU/disk/bandwidth stats on the leaderboards This is a collection of containers that all contribute to public-good projects: networks: Tor, i2p computing: boinc, foldingathome archiving: archivewarrior, zimfarm, kiwix, archivebox, pywb storage: ipfs, storj, sia, transmission This v1 list was started by the ArchiveBox project, but it’s open to contributions. We’ve added the 501(c)/non-profit status of each cause below, so you can filter out for-profit ones if you don’t want to participate in those (e.g. Storj/IPFS/etc.). Caveats The nature of most of these containers is that you’re contributing resources to the public or to specific causes running on the public internet. Unless otherwise specified or restricted to 127.0.0.1 in the compose file, all ports should be made available to the public internet. Make sure you understand the risks involved with exposi...
