urlwatch VS Sentry

I have been using urlwatch for diffing various sites with no RSS:

It even has various filters, for eg you can convert to plain text and diff that.

I use URLWatch, it works well: https://github.com/thp/urlwatch

I use urlwatch which is a command line tool (not for the faint of heart), but provides quite a bit of customization.

Using APM tools like NewRelic, Sentry, Datadog, etc to monitor the performance of your application and while you're on it, they can help you identify N+1 queries.

However, ensuring the reliability and performance of your Next.js app is equally crucial. That’s where Sentry comes into play. Combined with Sentry, an industry-leading error monitoring platform, Next.js empowers developers to proactively identify and resolve issues that may arise in their applications. In this article, we’ll explore how to integrate Sentry into your Next.js project for effective error monitoring and performance optimization.

Sentry: Error monitoring for applications, including APIs. Also offers application performance monitoring (APM).

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.

Versus having local desktop apps which require work to distribute. A potent example of the power of defaults.
