Why I recommend Renovate over any other dependency update tools
Oh yes, https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/3253. I wouldn't go so far as saying it was locked because it was too uncivil, mostly just because "additional commentary wasn't adding value" ;)
Your read on the situation is spot on, and no, it doesn't look like it's been "fixed" (mostly because "fixing it would re-introduce the same potential vulnerability).

Storybook 8
Storybook is great and all, but these days nearly every Dependabot alert I get is about a sub-dependency of Storybook. Since Dependabot doesn't currently allow you to ignore dev dependencies and only check production dependencies [0], this makes Storybook a Big Noise Generator and every time I dismiss another alert from it, I can't help but wonder if there's a better option out there.

Keeping dependencies in your GitHub projects up-to-date with Dependabot
P.S. While this being a powerful and handy tool itself, it is only a part of Dependabot’s capabilities. If you are interested, you’ll find more about them in the GitHub docs.

How to Manage Helm Chart Dependency Versions?
Hello! I'm using Helm in K8s and curious if there is a solution that could keep tabs on the deployed chart dependency versions and either alert us when something is out of date or when a new release is available. Does this exist? I was thinking something like Dependabot or Renovate, but neither seems to be able to manage this.

Introducing Bld: A New Pure Java Build System
An important point is that this kind of metadata often needs to be accessible from outside the build system itself. You need that for example in order to integration with renovate-bot or github's dependabot, to check your dependencies against CVEs, to build SBOMs and various other additional tasks that are not part of the build itself, but related to the build's metadata. This is all functionality I don't want to reimplement, I want to use what's already out there. And for that the build system needs to have some minimum amount of compatibility with existing standard metadata files like pom.xml or build.gradle

OpenAI, MinIO, And Why You Should Always Use docker-cli-scan To Keep Your Supply chAIn Clean
To avoid any potential data breaches, it is recommended that users upgrade to a patched version of MinIO (RELEASE.2023-03-20T20-16-18Z) and integrate security tooling such as docker-cli-scan or use Github’s built-in monitoring for supply chain vulnerabilities, which already contains a record referencing this vulnerability.

OCI Helm chat repo with common apps
I recognize that it does not handle chart updates, but it's might still ease the burden of applying minor releases easily etc. For the chart versions themselves, unfortunately dependabot does not support this and will not, but something like renovatebot does. Could be worth looking into as a dual approach

Private profiles are now generally available on GitHub
Disclosure: Renovate author
Renovate is indeed AGPL, but if you're just running it as a CLI, do you think there's anything to "watch out for"? It does not make any project you run it against AGPL, that's for sure.
Also you should be aware that dependabot-core, which dependabot-gitlab wraps, is not technically Open Source at all: https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/blob/main/LICE...

Gradle plugin for updating dependencies?
This can tell you about new versions https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin

Anyone else get annoyed when certain versions of androidx artifacts require compiling against Preview or Beta Android SDKs?
In one of my larger projects I use https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin to update dependencies every couple of weeks. I manually go through each available update, and now I have to check every androidx update to see if it's one of these special versions. On top of that, if it is, I have to go manually check if there was an update to the version that I'm on but beneath the special version.

GitHub can now alert of supply-chain bugs in new dependencies
In the meantime you can use the gradle-versions-plugin or one of its extensions. I wrote it a decade ago and naively hoped they would have offered something built-in and better by now. Maybe they finally will if the above moved forward.

Converting old java project into Kotlin
https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin is my go to plugin for updating and maintaining plugin versions (also allows you to update to stable only versions of dependencies once you setup some custom gradle methods.(note jitpack has bad meta data so you'll have to exclude this lib from that repo)

How often do you update dependencies?
I like https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin but there are others out there that are more up to date and provide more features. I only used it for dependency report generation. I'm going to play around with this and others more in the near future and see what one(s) I like.
