Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • letsblockit

    Remove low-quality content and useless nags, focus on what matters. A community-maintained uBlock Origin filter set.

    Since the ShowHN post, I added more features (including presets to hide github/stackoverflow copycats) and got PRs from two contributors. Hoping to keep the momentum going!

  • nginx-pagespeed

    Automated packaging of Debian-flavored NGINX with PageSpeed modules. Written in Bash and GitHub Workers. APT Repository hosted on Dokku.

  • I’m unreasonably proud of setting up automated patching for NGINX to include PageSpeed: https://github.com/knyzorg/nginx-pagespeed

    The whole project is basically just a ‘sed’ command, but piecing everything together (where to get the source code, how to build nginx, make Debian packages, publish packages, etc) was a major effort.

    I found myself in the valley between people who didn’t know and had no means of learning, and those who knew and for whom it was obvious. I’ve learned a lot.

  • 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.
