pratio··on Show HN: I made a web-based, free alternative to Screen Studio
Congratulations on the release, is there a plan to opensource it? I've been using https://snapify.it/, it's opensource but I haven't been able to selfhost it.
pratio··on Show HN: I Made Bagel Font
You can do that, just select everything and then type your text. It works :) but I feel you
pratio··on Omnom: Self-hosted bookmarking with searchable, wysiwyg snapshots
Your app looks really and the website is also cool but Readeck and Omnom are both selfhosted bookmark managers. A cool app is good to have but not a requirement.
pratio··on Omnom: Self-hosted bookmarking with searchable, wysiwyg snapshots [showcase]
It also does highlighting which is absolutely amazing. No need to save an entire page just for a piece of text. Also, you can have opds for ebooks.
pratio··on Omnom: Self-hosted bookmarking with searchable, wysiwyg snapshots
I have settled on https://readeck.org/ it's absolutely brilliant. It supports postgres and a service with systemd. omnom looks promising, will keep an eye on it.
pratio··on Show HN: Unpaid Movie Streaming App
Are these pirated streams? You pick the best available source? The UI and everything happening under the hood seems very seamless.

+1 for hyperdx, I'm testing it and love it.
pratio··on Kaneo – An open source project management platform
Congratulations on the release. While I echo the sentiments from others that screenshots or a video would've been very useful, the signup works without an email confirmation which is great, so I was able to see how the interface looks like. It has a very linear like feel https://linear.app/.

- If you could deploy a demo that doesn't require a signup/sign in, it'll make things a lot easier. You can reset it every x hours.

- The feature list is empty as I can't see what it offers or a comparison to other tools.

- After creating a task, I can't edit it.

Project management is very complicated and there's different groups of users, which one is yours? Those who need a full fledged jira with sso? they won't self host and won't care if it's open source. Small shops that need something cheap? Hobbyists or students?

I'm selfhosting vikunja https://vikunja.io/ at the moment. Opensource and supports my selfhosted sso.

You can find more here

Once again kudos on releasing and opensourcing it.

pratio··on Every .gov Domain
For those like me who want know how the page was built. It's using https://githubnext.com/projects/flat-data/. You can cycle through commits and files. Love it.

Example of another such pages: https://flatgithub.com/the-pudding/data?filename=boybands%2F...

It felt a bit like datasette and no wonder it's the inspiration as well

pratio··on Show HN: Built A Better Shopify (that's not a rip off)
You're not wrong about the pricing but based on what you see here https://www.shopify.com/pricing?country=us&lang=en

The $1000 plan covers a lot more than just an online store with a code. There's also a POS included, integrations with third party payment providers etc. Not everyone needs the most expensive plan. Also, the value of a Shopify subscription is not in the code to host an online shop but the ease of use with which someone can sell their wares online.

Yes, they do own the code but the question for most people using it is, do we need to own that code? Do we need to maintain it? or can we just focus on selling?

If someone stops paying Shopify, they still own the products that they were selling online, they can import an excel sheet on some another online store, upload the images and start selling. As long as they own the domain, selling on another platform would be easy.

pratio··on Show HN: Built A Better Shopify (that's not a rip off)
This doesn't seem to be a Shopify competitor in any reasonable way, I can say that because I used to work for a competitor before we were bought by a larger company.

The traditional development time that you list on the page is not involved when building a basic Shopify site. There's online payment integrations, localisation support, shipping integrations etc.

pratio··on Most iPhone owners see little to no value in Apple Intelligence so far
I agree. My iPhone usage is mainly to check email/whatsapp/calendar and my banking apps. Rarely take pictures or record videos.

Since my company uses exchange, email and calendar cannot be accessed outside the outlook app, not even by the iOS widgets which renders them next to useless for me.

pratio··on Show HN: Convert your LinkedIn profile to a resume
I have used this in the past, https://jsonresume.org and can vouch for it. Probably this is exactly what you mean
pratio··on Show HN: I built JSONtree a tool to validate, format, and graph JSON for devs
Congratulations on the release, great to see more in this space. At the moment, I'm using https://jsoncrack.com/ (No affiliation) which also has a VSCode extension, any chance there's something that like on your roadmap?
pratio··on Red Hat to contribute container tech (Podman, bootc, ComposeFS...) to CNCF
I've replaced keycloak with https://goauthentik.io/ 2 years on, no complaints
pratio··on Show HN: Melchi – Open-Source Snowflake to DuckDB Replication with CDC Support
thank you, will try and let you know
pratio··on Show HN: GitQuill – free cross-platform GUI for Git, inspired by GitKraken
I've been using Gitbutler which is also opensource

- https://github.com/gitbutlerapp/gitbutler

- https://gitbutler.com/

pratio··on Show HN: Melchi – Open-Source Snowflake to DuckDB Replication with CDC Support
absolutely, without sso, I can't even try it. Our policies don't allow using a password.
pratio··on Show HN: Melchi – Open-Source Snowflake to DuckDB Replication with CDC Support
This looks interesting, are there any plans to support snowflake external browser auth?
pratio··on Sq.io: jq for databases and more
Though I respect and applaud the effort that went into creating this and successfully releasing it, It has fewer features than duckdb supports at the moment.

Duckdb supports both Postgres, Mysql, SQLite and many other extensions.

Postgres: https://duckdb.org/docs/extensions/postgres

MySQL: https://duckdb.org/docs/extensions/mysql

SQLite: https://duckdb.org/docs/extensions/sqlite

You can try this yourself.

1. Clone this repo and create a postgres container with sample data: https://github.com/TemaDobryyR/simple-postgres-container

2. Install duckdb if you haven't and if you have just access it on the console: https://duckdb.org/docs/installation/index?version=stable&en...

3. Load the postgres extension: INSTALL postgres;LOAD postgres;

4. Connect to the postgres database: ATTACH 'dbname=postgres user=postgres host=127.0.0.1 password=postgres' AS db (TYPE POSTGRES, READ_ONLY);

5. SHOW ALL TABLES;

6. select * from db.public.transactions limit 10;

Trying to access SQL data without using SQL only gets you so far and you can just use basic sql interface for that.

pratio··on Paperless-ngx: scan, index and archive all your physical documents
So, https://goauthentik.io/ actually supports totp with ldap as well. https://docs.goauthentik.io/docs/providers/ldap#binding--bin...

And the parent makes a good point that OIDC/OAuth does not give group membership.

pratio··on Paperless-ngx: scan, index and archive all your physical documents
Absolutely, would love OIDC/OAuth. I use https://goauthentik.io/. Teedy supports only LDAP so that's what I'm using right now.
pratio··on Paperless-ngx: scan, index and archive all your physical documents
paperless-ngx is successor of paperless and paperless-ng. Around that time I moved to https://teedy.io which is also opensource https://github.com/sismics/docs and also support ldap.

I've been itching to give paperless-ngx a shot because I just love it but ldap hasn't yet ended up in the docs but the pull request was merged https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/pull/5190.

Regardless, I just love how this project just keeps coming back to life

pratio··on Coffee Stats – Maximize Caffeine Intake and Get to Bed at Night
This looks like a windows only app, here's another source, that runs on the browser. https://www.gkbrk.com/wiki/caffeine-halflife/.

Not affiliated, I just use it

Also, Smokers metabolise caffeine faster. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/657717/

pratio··on Show HN: Void, an open-source Cursor/GitHub Copilot alternative
The repository contains the full source code but there's a waitlist to download? Why?
pratio··on Is "Rich Dad Poor Dad" a Fraud?
I read the book on someone's recommendation, but I won't be doing the same to anyone else. The only person that book helped get rich is the author.

Recently, his videos have been going around where he encourages everyone to get into debt and calls everyday working people suckers. I can only imagine how many more people he's managed to swindle.

pratio··on Show HN: Copy-Paste from Webflow into Webstudio
Congrats on the launch!

Looks amazing Is there a way to try this without signing in to use it locally?

pratio··on Show HN: I built a simple, open-source tool to manage servers and SSH keys
Like other commentators have already mentioned but the openssl suite already solves these problems and even more complex ones

For example:

Specifying different keys different servers

Host github.com

    User git

    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_github
Host myserver

    User username

    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_myserver
Reuse SSH connections for multiple sessions

https://blog.scottlowe.org/2015/12/11/using-ssh-multiplexing...

https://blog.poespas.me/posts/2024/04/27-optimizing-ssh-conn...

Host *

    ControlMaster auto

    ControlPath ~/.ssh/sockets/%r@%h-%p

    ControlPersist 600
Other than that, you can also do ssh agent forwarding, port forwarding etc. These are all crucial functions that user like me need when we access remote machines.

I hope you take this as constructive criticism and not a knockdown on your work. You've created and released something that's great but this site usually brings more advanced users.

pratio··on Show HN: I built a simple, open-source tool to manage servers and SSH keys
So, congratulations on releasing your project but I'm not sure what problem are you trying to solve.

Please add some use-cases to make it clear where exactly does it come in, because once I add a key in my ssh config, I'm pretty much there. For more complicated tasks I use ansible.

pratio··on Versioned finite-state machines with Postgres (2019)
NoSQL will bring it's own set of issues right? Too flexible of a system with no built in Validations would mean that they need to be handled somewhere else. If we take the example in the post, refund should not precede awaiting payment, If a new status gets added, it becomes easy to know where the migrations have to be run and in NoSQL, either we write something custom or handle it each time the document is called.
