I found no better alternative as the source of data TBH. Open to suggestions. This is a toy project anyway, It won’t be exhaustive for sure and I don’t expect anyone to use it in production.

Thanks for the info though, I didn’t know firehol was in such a bad state


It's really sad, I like you, have no where to turn.


As someone else pointed out, yeah its free to download anyway.


Oops, the list isn’t meant to be exhaustive, just a toy project I built for fun. I really don’t expect anyone to use it


Yeah, it’s just a toy project, nothing much! Thanks for the references though, I’ll read it up :)


I cringe every time I have to open Google Analytics, at my current org we moved to Plausible and it's simply better. One could argue that the features are less "comprehensive" as compared to GA, but it still works better. The most important numbers are upfront and it's far easier to navigate and make sense of.


Here’s a talk the author of the project gave recently, fun story of how the project came into being

Logitech MX Master, I noticed wrist pain with the prolong use of the trackpad on my Mac. Instead of getting a generic mouse, I decided to take the leap and get the MX Master 2S. The ergonomics alone is worth all the hype and money. The extra buttons, excellent tracking is cherry on the top for me.


I really like the 2s. Besides just being an all-around excellent mouse, the scroll-wheel that just spins forever is probably my favorite feature - sometimes to scroll a long page - sometimes just as sort of a fidget spinner.

I want the 3 for the USB-C but otherwise my 2s is still in excellent condition and I have a hard time justifying replacing it just for the USB port.


I have a 3 that I'm not using, maybe we can work something out?


I have the MX Master 2S as well. Recently my keyboard started getting flaky on me and I got the MX keys to go along with it and it is fabulous. I switch in between machines fairly often and the buttons to switch between computers are a life saver.


For those like me that love the mac trackpads, but experience wrist pain from the bad ergonomics I recommend a gel mouse pad.

The gel elevates the wrist to provide better ergonomics.


could be better. The scroll wheel is too far back. A pleasant surprise is the button on the flap.


You can give https://frappeframework.com a try, it is MIT licensed, really powerful and comprehensive, excellent for making CRUD apps. Also has a PaaS offering on https://frappecloud.com

Full Disclosure: I worked at Frappe for the last 2 years


Frappe feels too heavy to get started. Ive tried it out few times over years. The flow seems very confusing for me to get started.


Seconded. We work closely with a design firm for our products, them and us, we've slowly all migrated to Figma to a point where all our design assets, branding assets, mockups are on Figma. Ironically being Mac only is one of the reason Sketch is losing against Figma. There was a gap in cross-platform collaborative design tools, Figma made the move, and did so with amazing UX. Sketch was, what I'd say, lazy when Figma was at it.


I see serverless working really well for a few niche tasks. Finite, stateless interactions that don't happen often. A good example will be a site say example.org that has a donate page. On form submit, a lambda can take the payload and create a subscription at a payment service like Stripe or Razorpay. The donate page at https://internetfreedom.in works the exact same way.

The broader idea is a service (or static site even) sending messages to a different service. Given how popular no-code platforms are getting, tiny serverless pieces can help automate operations between these platforms.
