📰 This Docker container converts any file to any format, so I stopped trusting sketchy websites with my private documents

Whether it’s productivity tools, media managers, or game servers, I stick to free and open-source apps as much as possible. After all, they’re completely private from the prying eyes of random companies, and I don’t have to spend dozens of dollars on monthly subscriptions to unlock essential features. With containerized images, I can even host FOSS tools on a server node and access them from the rest of my devices.
