informant VS Stream-Framework

It blocks your updates when there's Arch newsfeed updates that you haven't read, prints it to terminal and then you just need to mark the latest news as read for your updates to go through. It's rare enough that it's not a bother, while this news can contain crucial information about what needs manual intervention and how. https://github.com/bradford-smith94/informant

You can install Informant

Not sure about any EndeavourOS specific solution, but informant as a pacman hook gets you all the unread Arch news items before upgrading.

Before an update, I check if something has been released at https://archlinux.org/news/ that affects my own installation. If so, this has to be taken into account. For automatic checking there are tools like informant (https://github.com/bradford-smith94/informant).

informant is very useful to me. It shows you any news articles from the site that you haven't read, before updating. This is how I make sure I don't miss any news updates.

Informant (from the AUR) gives you a few commands to check the arch news and includes a pacman hook that blocks transactions if there are unread news.

Don't automate updates, bad idea. Use a hook like https://github.com/bradford-smith94/informant You will be fine not updating for a month.

I highly recommend Informant. It's basically a hook into pacman that checks Arch news before installing anything, and if there is a new message you are forced to read it before you can proceed.

I have looked into a getstream.io integration, however it seems that the Ruby SDK is really treated as a second class citizen. There's bugs with the documented API (I'm having issues even creating users and querying users), the usage of the gem is low and there is an open issue since May that no one has even looked at, which doesn't give me hope for long term support.

An ultralight social media app with no dependencies that can run on shared web hosting. It's an API like Getstream, so F/E is up to you. I've had a fork of it in production for 2.5 years on a subscription site that generates a small income.

Now, I'm seeking your advice and opinions. If you have experience using Stream or MirrorFly for chat implementation, I'd greatly appreciate any insights you can provide. Here are some questions I have:

Think about the edge that you can have over thousands other people looking for a job like you. One of the ways to do it – tailor your (even small) experience to the company you are applying to. E.g. Let's take a company like Stream that have an open-source Swift SDK, try to contribute to their SDK, maybe close some `good-first-issue`s here and there, do some documentation improvements, enrich their example app. So that when you feel like you are ready to knock their door – you already have an edge over others – you don't need onboarding (because you already know most of their codebase, you even completed your first few tasks while yet not being employed!)

This is absolutely absurd. I mean I 100% believe it happens, it's just absurd that the Tier 1 admin bot is this bad.

I too firmly believe the tier 1 admins are just this program - https://getstream.io/ And reddit doesn't want to admit that humans are not actually reviewing things

Really depends on so many variables, and comes down to knowing the audience. I built a lightweight social network api platform to do a lot of what getstream.io and OSSN does, but the way users engaged with it was nothing like what I expected. One use case, for example, would have been mostly satisfied with WordPress and Mailchimp. Forums are very familiar to people and still used by a lot of "I don't do social media" types. At the risk of making a sweeping generalization, if you have an older target audience they will be happy with a forum. If you have a younger target audience they will prefer the sequential post / react style of interacting, like Discord or Instagram.
