About
What Originless does
Originless is a self-hosted storage backend built on IPFS. It lets you upload and share files anonymously with no accounts, no tracking, and no logs. Works as a drop-in backend for apps, screenshot tools, pastebin-style pastes, Nostr clients, and anything else that needs durable file hosting.
Install Flow
How to self-host Originless
Originless can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what Originless does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, deployment notes, and where to find the original compose template.
After deployment, Yantr lets you publish additional ports from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random port.
Use Cases
What people run it for
- Use as a self-hosted image and file host for your apps without relying on third-party cloud storage.
- Host files anonymously on IPFS — content persists across the network even if your node goes offline.
- Drop it into any tool or platform via the simple REST API in minutes.

Notes
Things to know before you deploy
- Set STORAGE_MAX to control how much disk space IPFS can use — defaults to 200GB.
- Port 4001 is used for IPFS swarm connections — keep it open if you want peers to find your node.
- Replace https://originless.besoeasy.com with http://localhost:3232 in API calls if using self-hosted.
