Oh Dear

Another week, another batch of updates. Acknowledge incidents so recovery alerts still fire, smarter AI checks with published IPs and honeypot detection, faster ClickHouse-powered dashboards, and a bunch of fixes. 🔥 ohdear.app/changelog/2026…

Weekly updates 🔥 Non-stop improvements to make @OhDearApp the best possible website monitor out there 💪 ohdear.app/changelog

Your status page can now email your subscribers. Someone visits your status page, drops their email, confirms it, and gets an inbox alert the moment a service breaks or recovers. 🥳

Fresh changelog just dropped. Added 10+ translations for status pages, a 48-hour grace period before we cut off bouncing email addresses, a fresh Oh Dear vs Atlassian Statuspage comparison, and a batch of invoice export fixes. 🔥 ohdear.app/changelog/2026…

Default is 500 confirmed subscribers per team to start. Run a popular page & need more? Just ask. Full rundown here: 👇 ohdear.app/news-and-updat…

As a subscriber you pick & match what you want to hear about: which type of updates, and which sites on the status page. There's a Subscribers tab too, so you can see who's confirmed, pending, or bounced, add people manually, resend confirmations, & export to CSV.

Adding a small but useful little visual indicator on the dashboard: the sparklines will be shown in red when there was downtime

When you see > 1,8 million (😱) outages, you've got a lot of data to run some analytics on. Here's a set of datapoints we measured at @OhDearApp. Full page is here, but this thread contains the highlights: ohdear.app/uptime-statist…

@mozexdev That is indeed a big jump, if you send us a message over the chat-bot (bottom-right icon on the site) we'll help out with a coupon code in the short-term 🙏

@OhDearApp The jump from 10 to 25 sites. I just need 1 more site but have to double my plan to get it. An add-on for extra sites (or a slightly higher Standard limit) would be great 🙏

What’s something that has bothered you within Oh Dear that we should prioritize fixing? Let us know and we’ll make things better! 💪

Hey look, my smug face over on @helpnetsecurity 👀 Talking about uptime & alert fatigue

Shipped this week: Response body assertions for HTTP checks, a full DNS record validation framework with advisory warnings, AI-powered fix prompts for broken links and mixed content, a free DNS Lookup tool, and ZGrab2-based port scanning. 🔥 ohdear.app/changelog/2026…

Cleaning up the view of our webhook logs a bit and adding filters so it's easier to spot which webhook events came through cleanly & which require your attention

@kiekbjul Thx for the tip, we'll have a look!

I see something new for the DNS/SSL monitor in @OhDearApp 👀 Validating DNS-PERSIST-O1 ACME Challenge records and their expiration letsencrypt.org/2026/02/18/dns…

We're expanding into security surface scanning with @OhDearApp with our next check (enabled for free, for all users!): open port scanning. Get notified when a firewall change or unexpected daemon suddenly exposes a port to the internet Coming (very) soon 👀
