Another great open source product from the company. Their open source project management software, Taiga (taiga.io), is a fantastic tool that I have used for several years. Feature-wise it’s the most matured software out there, and runs blazing fast.
We’re a small game studio and we pay for all adobe products ($84/mo/user). It’s an underestimation that people don’t pay for Adobe products. No other offerings match their products, and Acrobat is something that we rarely use. Other products work perfectly.
Featurewise, Taiga is the closest competitor. The only missing bit is mobile apps and real-time notification. Other than that, there's almost nothing that Taiga doesn't do.
The only thing that prevented us from using MatterMost when switching away from Rocket.Chat was video/voice calls that would actually ring the mobile/desktop devices on the call. We had to settle with MS Teams and eventually got the MS365 bundle only because of the reliable calls in Ms Teams. Although chat is a pita in teams after using Rocket.Chat for years, we’re making more calls and writing fewer chat messages.
But.. one of their developers also made the same mistake as the OP. The OP learned a lesson but seemingly anyone at GitHub didn’t think, “we should fix this confirmation dialog so this doesn’t happen again”.

I started writing about security but eventually started blogging in my own company’s resources/blog so there’s not much. After around a decade of plain simple site, I settled with Wordpress and also wrote about why I did that here. https://njs.com.np/uncategorized/why-wordpress/
Why would I ever need to support arbitrary Oauth2 providers? As long as they're following the standards, a generic Oauth2 client should suffice. If they're misaligned with the standards I wouldn't be using their service.
+1 to this. Why outsource the most business-critical parts like auth and email to a third party, knowing that they're the biggest target? I know that the most common argument is "they know $service more than we do", but don't really have a counter argument against it.
Because a lot of systems depend on the "time". As a simple example, the software that the workers use to "sign in" and "sign out" for the day depends on it, and needs bi-yearly updates. A lot of automated systems like ATM machines, telephone plans, etc. depend on the "time", and they require less maintenance if the time doesn't need to change twice a year.
Because people use them because they’re free. I’m happy with the few android apps, and few web apps with a few thousand visitors that I have. I made those when I was free (pun intended) so there’s no point charging for them. And I can afford a few bucks a month on hosting so not a big deal.
Whoa! One of the few CTOs that you can randomly run into on the internet, but still I have nothing to ask or tell about their service. Thank you for what you’re doing!
I’ve also tried many products to replace Trello and finally settled with Taiga. It doesn’t look complex, and the UI is great too. The only missing bits I find are native mobile apps.
This happens so many times and some people posted it on HN before. The most common reply is that you should not put all your eggs in someone else’s basket. I’m amused no one has posted that comment yet.
By the way, Google will most probably not restore the account, but I’d be interested to know whether it does because our startup is also similar to yours, and half of our eggs are in Google’s basket too. Please keep us (the community) updated.
Depends on where you live. In some cities in Europe, after paying taxes and living expenses you might have money left only for a couple of beers a day. In the developing parts of the world, $4k a month is 10x the average developer’s salary. But if that’s a passive income I don’t see a need to live in an expensive city so your comment makes sense.
If it has already integrated git, why not support syncing through the VCS instead of third party like Dropbox or iCloud? Is there any note taking app that automatically syncs changes with a remote repository, so I can simply provide credentials to a hosted git instance and it does everything out of the box?
As an app developer (both Android and iOS), I can tell where. When I’m done with the basic app features the app is no more than 3-5 MB but then I can’t ship it without some libraries that make me money - analytics and ads. Then again, if I only integrate one or two ad network SDKs, the revenue from the app can’t even support its development. So I add 12-15 different SDKs from all the ad networks and have them compete for the ad space. Then again, I need things that track crashes, and then offer in-app support, then someone emails you that you can silently earn $xxx per day only by integrating their SDK. Why not? Who doesn’t like an extra $xxx a day?
See what I did there? I turned that 3MB app to a 80MB app.
Disclaimer: Most of my apps are ~15MB and I try to put them under 20MB on Android.
Intuitive but involves a lot of typing. I find it much easier to remember “square for text, round for attachment “ than write/read through so many html tags. Many text editors, including MacDown for instance, have a split view so you can hardly get it wrong more than twice.
I can confirm this. The time is around 7:00PM and the IP address changes, and I have to log in again to some websites because my IP has changed. Downtime is approximately 2 minutes.
