A way to live your 'data-life' proactively, avoid the noise and just monitor what you need to know about.

+1 yeah, talk about the solution and make it dead easy simple, keep a very simple scope and make simple features work extremely well.

I've managed to climb to the top of my "industry" through doing the same, all the other competitors talk about what they technology they use etc, people dont care.. they just want a really simple fast sexy solution.

microacquire - is there any way we can see/verify that it happened?

congrats btw

yes!!! changedetection.io is awesome, thanks for the nice words (project owner here :) )

I loved XFCE4 for probably a decade, but the constant CPU usage bugs made me switch to KDE Plasma, havent looked back.

I had to abandon XFCE due to some issue with aging XFCE4 libraries and high cpu problems, switched to KDE Plasma 5.x,. got 50% longer battery lifetime and havent looked back.

They need to focus on these kinds of problems, not on adding new features, otherwise I would have stayed.

there was, but i fixed it :) should be fixed now? https://changedetection.io

https://changedetection.io - identified a niche where there was only closed source solutions that were _extremely_ expensive for what it is, and all other opensource products seemed very 'under-cooked' and talked more about the technology (language, web framework etc) they used rather than the problem they solved.

All other opensource solutions were also too hard to install and lacked features. Added many features that easily outpace the closed source competition

Made it easy to run/use/download/modify to get the numbers up then and sell subscription/hosted solution for those who dont have time. Also taking on many interesting custom solutions for people and companies that I've met through this project.

I've been running this software locally as a docker container on my laptop since about February 2021, obviously with a few updates/restarts, but generally it is set and forget

Self-hosting is the only safest bet, or share a real server somewhere with some friends, or however you like

changedetection.io supports filters and triggers which all can result in a notification to a JSON call or anyone of the existing hundreds of other services (email, discord, etc)

"But I think the meaning of the change is important" this is exactly right, is it a whitespace? is it the text? what is "change" ?

Yeah, coming in the next week or so actually, or feel free to open a PR! also adding an API to retrieve snapshots (text/JSON) too

Just wait for a change to be detected and then clicked "DIFF" button in the main list, easy.. the screenshot is just from my browser of my local installation of the software

Great idea!

It accepts CSS filters - click on EDIT, Then "Filters & Triggers" and there you can fill in a CSS filter, more stuff coming soon :)
