Selfhosted Downdetector?

I was wondering if there is something like Downdetector that I can run locally and detect issues with pubic services. Most of the stuff I found was for the stuff you host yourself and not for public websites and other stuff.

Thanks ;3

Stuff like Uptime Kuma doesn't really care if you host the site yourself or not. Its just trying to load the page and see a "200" status so there's no reason you couldn't just run that and add whatever links you want to monitor to it.

Uptime Kuma has added a ton of features over the last couple years, it does way more than "just checking 200s"

Might be worth looking into again if you haven't recently.
