ELI6 Movies — open source free streaming site built with vanilla JS + Node.js, $0/month to run
ELI6 Movies is a free streaming site I built — vanilla JS frontend, Node.js/Express backend, MongoDB.
Runs entirely on free tiers (Vercel + Render + Atlas M0). Zero cost to deploy yourself.
Features: episode notifications, smart server failover, watchlist, i18n (EN/IT/RU), mobile-first.

popup ads are fixed btw if that's what set you off
spamming too many communities was a mistake, wont do that again
posting to every community at once was dumb, yeah
Source code?
This is open source afterall.
just made it public: https://github.com/EliseyRotar/eli6_movies
...... No words can express how bad of an idea this is.
fair point. render free tier has no static IPs so you literally cant restrict by IP, its 0.0.0.0/0 or pick a different host. but yeah the README made it sound like a feature rather than a tradeoff, updated it to be clearer that strong credentials + TLS are what actually protect you here
You can. Your AI slop just doesn't know how.
you are right, my bad. render publishes fixed CIDR ranges per region, you can get them from the dashboard and allowlist those in atlas instead of 0.0.0.0/0. updating the readme
