## Common questions

### Can Hydra or another service reach a self-hosted Spotweb over HTTP internally when Traefik handles SSL externally?

Spotweb is a moderated and curated Spotnet system with manual intervention, which can make new content appear slightly slower while raising quality depending on the spotters.

### Can Spotweb filter spots since the last view?

Yes, Spotweb can show and filter new spots since the last view.

### Does Spotweb support downloading multiple files?

Spotweb supports downloading multiple files.
