Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Sentry new TOS to use data to train AI with no opt-out
This is the point where I will point out that you can self-host Sentry free of charge :) https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/

FSL: A License for the Bazaar, Not the Cathedral
The people we're concerned about are not the hundreds of thousands of Sentry users, including those that self-host.
We're concerned about people who have taken the software for the purposes of competing directly against us, that hinders our ability to monetize the work. Monetizing the work helps us continue improving the software and distribute it for free use, benefitting those aforementioned real users (e.g. https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted).

Show HN: A open-source financial accounting alternative to QuickBooks
> I mean no slander or disrespect to anyone involved, but there was a DataDog alternative posted sometime in the last few weeks that had a docker-compose with like 15 containers in it.
Reminds me of Sentry: https://develop.sentry.dev/self-hosted/
This is their example docker-compose for self-hosting: https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/master/docker-...

OpenTelemetry in 2023
> What should people use?
I recall Apache Skywalking being pretty good, especially for smaller/medium scale projects: https://skywalking.apache.org/
The architecture is simple, the performance is adequate, it doesn't make you spend days configuring it and it even supports various different data stores: https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/main/v9.0.0/en/setup/back...
The problems with it are that it isn't super popular (although has agents for most popular stacks), the docs could be slightly better and I recall them also working on a new UI so there is a little bit of churn: https://skywalking.apache.org/downloads/
Still better versus some of the other options when you need something that just works instead of spending a lot of time configuring something (even when that something might be superior in regards to the features): https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/master/docker-...
Sentry is just the first thing that comes to mind (OpenTelemetry also isn't simpler due to how much it tries to do), but compare its complexity to Skywalking: https://github.com/apache/skywalking/blob/master/docker/dock...
I wish there was more self-hosted software like that out there, enough to address certain concerns in a simple way on day 1 and leave branching out to more complex options like OpenTelemetry once you have a separate team for that and the cash is rolling in.

yes to the second https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/23.4.0/docker-... and only after the embargo is over to the first: https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/23.4.0/LICENSE...
I also miss the "good old days" when running sentry was like 3 containers, not the 32 of modern Sentry

A Guide to Using OpenTelemetry in Jina for Monitoring and Tracing Applications
We use the self-hosted Sentry application landscape to set up the actual APM or SPM. We'll only explore a small set of features supported by Sentry to preserve the focus of this post. Refer to the documentation for more details.

Monitoring Microservices with Prometheus and Grafana
> E.g does not allow you to define custom metrics to e.g. monitor resource utilization
I think that might not quite be the case in the latest versions: https://docs.sentry.io/product/performance/metrics/#custom-p...
> In addition to the automatic performance metrics described above, Sentry supports setting custom performance metrics on transactions. Custom performance metrics allow you to define metrics (beyond the ones mentioned above) that are important to your application and send them to Sentry.
> For example, you might want to set a custom metric to track:
> - Total memory usage during a transaction
> - The amount of time being queried
> - Number of times a user performed an action during a transaction
> You define and configure custom metrics in the SDK.
Though for my use cases, Sentry's technical complexity is more of a stumbling block, were I to self-host it: https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted/blob/master/docker-...

It's 29 Delphi, I mean
Indeed, webapps are not immune to distribution problems. Wayward and invasive browser extensions are a clear threat, as are 3rd-party dependencies (and their dependencies) loaded at runtime. Which is why companies like https://sentry.io exist. I think the difference is that webapps are "distributable by default" and it takes real work to break this. Versus having local desktop apps which require work to distribute. A potent example of the power of defaults.

The Life and Death of Open Source Companies
> You invent something, and then immediately turn it into a cheap commodity by releasing it for free.
Exactly. A 71-line python script https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/commit/3c2e87573d3bd16f6... was groundbreaking when it came out and the fact that it springboarded into a startup is commendable.

Sentry Relicense Again (FSL)
https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/pull/60144 -> https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/blob/d4d89e2fa93ad99f13d...
If they're going to all this trouble for "ambiguity," I don't know why they wouldn't further extend their custom SPDX identifier to include the "2 year" rollover, since that's one of their pearl-clutching reasons for this bullshit: https://github.com/getsentry/loose-confederation/issues/4

Sentry: From the Beginning
It's source available under the BSL: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry. After four years it becomes open source (probably to prevent "AWS Elastic Error Handling service(tm)" from becoming a thing)
You can still run it for your company for free, if you feel like managing all of the infra it requires.

Flash-cards app with OpenAI
Ohh, I forgot to mention that I added Sentry in this project just because it is an easy way to track the errors. But don’t worry, it is free and you can create it here.
