  • Mattermost

    • Project mention: Discord to Start Showing Ads for Gamers to Boost Revenue | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-01

    > Tell me another platform that is free, has realtime chat, voice and video, has stable service, allows sharing images and other media, with good ownership management... and is open source.

    Mattermost: https://mattermost.com/

    Rocket.Chat: https://www.rocket.chat/

    Nextcloud Talk: https://nextcloud.com/talk/

    Self hosting and some assembly required. I've run all of them on cheap VPSes to explore a Slack/Discord replacement, neither was mindblowing but all of them seemed okay (Nextcloud's offering was rather barebones, though).

    Audio and video support varies because getting those right is challenging, at best you'd just integrate with something like Jitsi, that one's actually pretty good for meetings and such: https://jitsi.org/ and has a cloud version too: https://meet.jit.si/ (yet people still go for Zoom and it's odd UI/UX choices)

    I actually rather liked forums back in the day, but I guess nobody will be setting up that many phpBB instances in the current year, though projects like Discourse also seem promising: https://www.discourse.org/

    I don't think many people at all will be leaving Discord, due to how entrenched the platform is (network effect): if you want people to help you with what you're working on, you go where they are, not vice versa.

  • focalboard

    Focalboard is an open source, self-hosted alternative to Trello, Notion, and Asana.

    • Project mention: Elegant open source project tracking, Trello like but self-hosted | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-18

    I switched to Planka after Focalboard went community-supported, but failed to appoint any community leaders. So far, I'm very happy with Planka for my needs at home.

  • Bit

    A build system for development of composable software.

    • Project mention: Theming using CSS Variables? Turn Them into VS Code Snippets for Faster, Error-Free Coding | dev.to | 2024-04-14

    Our demo solution was built using Bit, which allows us to create shareable components, render component “previews,” generate component docs, and so on.

  • unleash

    • Project mention: How to Implement Feature Flags in Node.js using Unleash | dev.to | 2024-01-01

    Unleash (Feature Flags)

  • HedgeDoc

    HedgeDoc - Ideas grow better together

    • Project mention: Building a Blog in Django | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-12

    Nice and simple. I feel the only lacking feature for a basic blog is having unlisted blog posts, which is very handy when you want to share it to proof-readers. This can be done on google doc/hedgedoc [0] for sure, but then when porting there are very often typos creeping in.

    • Project mention: Edit This Blog Post | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-06

    Absolutely! The real complexity comes from conflict resolution. If someone edits the top, and someone else edits the bottom, which version do you go with? What if they're editing the same area? Entire companies exist to provide elegant solutions to this[0], so it's no simple task.

    • Project mention: Local-first software: You own your data, in spite of the cloud (2019) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-02

    This article has been quite the inspiration for many projects and progress on this front. I think we're seeing more and more developments around CRDTs and local-first frameworks / applications.

    I'm working on a few projects in this area:

    - https://www.typecell.org - Notion meets Notebook-style live programming for TypeScript / React

    - https://www.blocknotejs.org - a rich text editor built on TipTap / Prosemirror that supports Yjs for local-first collaboration

    - https://syncedstore.org - a wrapper around Yjs for easier development

    In my experience so far, some things get more complicated when building a local-first application, and some things get a lot easier. What gets easier is that once you've modeled and implemented the data-layer (which does require you to rethink / unlearn a few principles), you don't need to worry about data-fetching, errors etc. as much as in a regular "API-based" app.

    Another interesting video I recommend on this topic is about Linear's "Sync Engine" which employs some of the local-first techniques as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wo2m3jaJixU

    • Project mention: JSON-joy CRDT benchmarks, 100x speed improvement over state-of-the-art | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-22

    Love seeing CRDT innovation! I'm building something in the space, so excited to give this a try.

    The death stroke for these types of projects seems to be lack of funding. This project is sponsored by nlnet[0] providing between 5k - 50k EU per year. Let's hope this gets additional resources.

    As a note, it appears to use Elastic's 2.0 license preventing selling software that includes this library [1]
