Project mention: Professor of law, Bruce Pardy on Trudeau's upcoming internet censorship in 2023. | reddit.com/r/Canada_sub | 2023-01-11
Nothing can be censored here. Nothing. https://zeronet.io. read that again. Nothing can be censored because it is 100% decentralized, that is the opposite of centralized power.

Project mention: Hindsight is a free and open-source retrospective board | reddit.com/r/javascript | 2023-01-07
No back-end. Data is shared via WebRTC directly between connected browsers. I'm using Yjs to help me with that.

Honestly, it might be better to use a realtime collaboration service. If you need to you could automatically sync this with the GitHub version by pulling updates on a schedule.
I've used hackmd.io for real-time collaboration in Markdown. They even offer an open-source self-hosted version, https://github.com/hackmdio/codimd. There may be other services as well.

This resonates with me 100%. Every bit of unhappiness I've felt in my career so far has been caused by a bad manager. The main issue for me has been the final point you mentioned about "Imposed artificial limitations" - I cannot tell you the number of times that I've been forced to use an inefficient tool or do something in a sub-optimal or downright incorrect way (knowing that it would have to be re-written later) by a bad manager... In some companies, it was a daily occurrence; that's why I never stayed at a single company for longer than 2 years. It's almost impossible to find a company that lets me implement things correctly.
Thankfully, nobody could constrain me in my open source work. I (with the help of community members) built:
- SocketCluster (https://socketcluster.io/): A distributed pub/sub framework.
- Capitalisk (https://capitalisk.com/): A lightweight quantum-resistant blockchain which is less than 5K lines of code.
- LDEX (https://ldex.trading/): A deterministic decentralized exchange (DEX) which can work with many different blockchain protocols. It's less than 4K lines of code in total and only has 3 small third-party dependencies (including sub-dependencies).

There are even more implementations of live queries available by now. e.g. https://github.com/samsarahq/thunder (go) or https://github.com/n1ru4l/graphql-live-query (JavaScript).

trystero
🤝 Serverless WebRTC matchmaking for painless P2P — Make any site multiplayer in a few lines — Use BitTorrent, IPFS, or Firebase
Project mention: UnCloud project: WebRTC chat, file transfer, and remote observation | reddit.com/r/WebRTC | 2022-12-18Yes, this is a major issue that I haven't found a real solution for. There seems to be a mixture of iOS Safari bugs and intentional design limitations at play, and I don't know if a fully P2P web app like Chitchatter is practical on that platform. There's an open issue to improve this in Trystero (the networking library that Chitchatter uses), but there may be a limit to how stable iOS will be with WebRTC apps. 😕

Project mention: Ask HN: What is something you built but never marketed? | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-08-14
A data-synchronization library for Node.js
https://github.com/siriusastrebe/jsynchronous
Ever get tired of sending API requests and JSON payloads? Wouldn't it be cool if data just synced between server and client?
Jsynchronous lets you share deeply nested object/arrays between node.js and connected browsers – and any changes made to that variable.

I have found in the past this one https://github.com/janlukasschroeder/realtime-newsapi but not sure if it meets your criteria. Worth to check as it is free.
