  • PropertyChanged

    And GitHub is the place where employees of billion dollar companies pester unpaid maintainers because they won’t support a 12 year old version of .NET

  • relay

    Sentry event forwarding and ingestion service. (by getsentry)

    We have no Nim usage in the company. One of our engineers nominated it as something they find personally interesting, and we wanted to give at least a little bit to every project that our employees nominated.

    By contrast, we use Rust quite heavily, including our core ingest component: https://github.com/getsentry/relay.

    That's why there's such a discrepancy in this case.

  • sentry-symfony

    The official Symfony SDK for Sentry (sentry.io)

    > You didn't even get a product manager or customer success manager to intervene.

    For the record, these are false statements. zeeg did get me, a paid employee, to step in and deal with the situation, which I did:

    https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-symfony/issues/436#issue...

    It's true that we do have a lot of great volunteers working on our SDKs. We value them and appreciate them, and if/when we let them down we do our best to make it right.

    Sorry for letting you down as a customer. We'll keep trying to do better.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
