Ask HN: Forum Software Similar to Reddit?
I have not tried this one, but Postmill [1] is similar to HN and phpBB [2] is an off the shelf forum platform with incredible moderator capabilities but I think an add-on is required for voting.

[Poll] How do you handle file attachments in your Rails app in 2023?
Shrine is great, has more features and a simpler API (imo) than ActiveStorage https://shrinerb.com

A First Look at Hanami 2 for Ruby
In general, even though the Hanami ecosystem lacks any "plug-and-play" solutions such as Devise, you can use many existing libraries not tightly coupled to Ruby on Rails. For authentication, you can use Warden, OmniAuth or Rodauth. For uploads there is Shrine. The pagination is built into ROM. Integration with exception catchers such as Rollbar is easy.
- If you use shrine, lock net-protocol to < 0.2.0 for now

Image Uploading with Shrine
Once I knew I wanted to upload images I stated to look around for different ways to do so. I came across a gem named shrine which can be found here https://shrinerb.com/. This is were the hard part came in. Aside from installing the gem like normal, there was a second step that needed to be done to allow images to be rendered. I needed to install https://imagemagick.org/index.php ImageMagick onto my system. After this I was able to add images.
