Project mention: OpenScreen is an open-source alternative to Screen Studio | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-03-31
I used ScreenStudio for a year. Then, when my annual subscription was up for renewal I tried https://cap.so/ and https://screensage.pro/
After experiencing many bugs and UX oddities with both of those, I went back to ScreenStudio.
ScreenStudio is reliable and produces the best results for my use case (educational content and client updates)

Project mention: What We Talk About When We Talk About Sideloading | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-10-28Tangent about open source development
As a person that tried the Pine64 ecosystem and not being able to will drivers/C++ apps into existence (like I can with web/cross platform), I did not contribute much other than buying the device/doing some videos on YT. (I bought: PP, PPP, PineBook, PineNote, PineTab)
It depended on few people working on it eg. through Discord communities
Anyway point is I saw Expensify I think they have these GitHub PRs which have $ values on them, would be interesting to take that approach, just pay for it literally eg. a GoFundMe for a feature.
ex. https://github.com/Expensify/App/issues/73681

Project mention: Show HN: We're two coffee nerds who built an AI app to track beans and recipes | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-06-30
Just curios - Outside of "AI", what's the benefit of using your app over Beanconqueror (https://beanconqueror.com/), which is open source, has a lot of functionality built out and supports integrations with scales, refractometers, etc?
