SkyFM VS ossdatabase

Doing that for decades.

An app for Windows phone, downloaded 140k times: https://github.com/Const-me/SkyFM

Cross-platform graphics library for .NET: https://github.com/Const-me/Vrmac

Recently, offline speech-to-text for Windows: https://github.com/Const-me/Whisper

At this point, I consider side projects like that as a hobby.

You don't need any of that to do system programming in C#. Startup time of JIT runtime is not too bad. Similarly, garbage collector is fine if you don't load it too much (neither allocations/second nor bytes/second).

Here's my almost decade-old open source code which works for hours allocating very little (the process gets killed by the OS if exceeds 11MB of RAM): https://github.com/Const-me/SkyFM

Here's somewhat similar modern code, also multimedia related: https://github.com/Const-me/Vrmac/tree/master/VrmacVideo

Once I wanted to listen internet radio on my windows phone: https://github.com/Const-me/SkyFM

looks like they typo'd, it's https://ossdatabase.com

- https://ossdatabase.com : Open source alternatives for popular software, this project itself is Open Source. (https://github.com/prithvi16/ossdatabase) and extensively uses Hotwire.

I have built and launched multiple products from ideation and design to building and marketing them. I have also worked in large and small teams. I like to take ownership of my work end to end and figure things out on my own.

https://ossdatabase.com - is a crowdsourced Open Source software database. Our goal is to make finding open source alternatives and comparing them to proprietary solutions as simple as possible.

I have also built something similar at

https://ossdatabase.com

Recently released code under AGPL-3.

But I want to go beyond aggregation and add following things

I will add your project to https://ossdatabase.com

Sure. Some links I just bookmarked and will use:

https://highbrow.se/ (Alternative search engine)

https://cora-pic.com/en (Meme generator)

https://www.mightyapp.com/ (New upcoming cloud browser)

https://ossdatabase.com/ (Database of OSS)

Hi! I am the creator of this tool. I saw people collecting Open Source alternatives on Github. Which is awesome btw, but I thought there was a better way to do this. I wanted to build a nice and clean UI and nice filters to filter projects by tech, platform, use case, and license. Following things are planned - User reviews for projects, will be screened for spam.- User-based submissions, and edits for projects. More transparency in moderation.- Karma for users based on edits. - Once I gain enough traction I plan to release the source code under MIT and the collected data in CSV files for everyone to download. - A job board for companies using Open Source tools for monetization. Alternative.to is a good tool, but it doesn't hurt to have alternatives ;). Thanks, u/zicxor for cross-posting here! source code: https://github.com/prithvi16/ossdatabase
