Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Two projects I greatly appreciate, allowing me to easily archive my bandcamp and GOG purchases (after the initial setup anyways):
https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader
https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc
And I recently learned about archivebox, which I think is going to be a fast favorite and finally let me clear out my mess of tabs/bookmarks: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

Forget spaceships; I just want my music
I should really write up a full Linux and windows setup guide and submit it.
Likewise, people who use bandcamp are likely to use GOG, which also has purchase archiving tools available on GitHub. I’ve used https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc for a long time, but there are actually multiple projects now.

Best way to backup my GoG offline installer files?
Tools like https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc use these blue dots to know which games are updated, without having to do an intensive and long full scan of you library.
-
No Man's Sky Offline Backup Installer broken on GOG. Please Fix!
See above that's what I used and it works perfectly and its gogrepoc the other one is vastly out of date. Don't use the one you linked too.
-
Do you back up your game files? If so, how do you do it?
I download my GoG games & extras directly to my RAID 1 NAS using gogrepoc.
-
Why aren't I getting game update notifications anymore? And is there a way to track/organize my GOG games by most recently updated, without having them installed?
Personally I use a app called gogrepoc.py It creates a manifest based off of your account and allows you to generate a current log of games. And you can update those in the future so it spins through your entire list and will mark changes. Unfortunately it takes a while if your catalog is huge but it's a great way to keep everything up to date.

Can you still use the GOG downloader?
I use https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc
-
Is there a plan to switch to a better installer / setup for offline installation
For windows, I found: https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc Didn't test that one tho.
-
Does Drm free games allow me to still own them even if Gog dies?
Yes, there is. I use a program called gogrepo to automate the process of downloading games like this. I think there are a couple other similar projects out there (definitely a couple forks of gogrepo), but this one suits me.
-
Offline games w/larger than 4GB files
Oy you're outdated then it's Gogrepoc now and it has many more features including a trash mode instead of keeping the old stuff ;)

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
I have a work mac, work linux, and home mac. I want the same terminal-based development environment on all of them, but each requires just a little bit of customization.
For example, the .gitconfig for work is different from home (e.g. my username/email). Ditto for my .ssh/config and my shell aliases.
I also use Nix to manage all my tools, and the home-manager configuration is slightly different between mac & linux due to platform support.
I've gone through a few iterations of home-built solutions, including extending homeshick[1], before discovering YADM which implemented everything I had done but better.

How do you manage your shell scripts?
I do roughly the same and then manage them with 'homeshick' ( https://github.com/andsens/homeshick )

VIM for remote server file editing
Have a look at https://github.com/andsens/homeshick project, it makes this workflow much easier.

Ask HN: How do you sync your computers development configurations/environment?
Homeshick for dotfiles: https://github.com/andsens/homeshick
Docker for Obsidian and Alfred syncing - the three target limit on the free tier is just barely enough for 2 of my own computers and my work laptop.
I've also got a Brewfile for installing the basic tooling on macOS
I also have a "how to set up a new computer/server" document on Notion that I use so I don't forget any steps.

Fish Shell 3.2.0 Released
This is the exact reason I use Fish. The only thing I _need_ to get installed on random servers is Fish itself.
No need to install and configure oh-my-$shell or other huge monstrosities. Most of my stuff comes from a simple homeshick[1] sync with a few files in it.
