When you have workflows that you repeat over and over it’s easier to formalize with something like jido. Ie if you don’t want to type into a checkbox and verify output everytime.

Man I heard about this being addressed soon for years. I have given up on Helix by now, but it’s wild that this still hasn’t been released.

Raycast are not building Mac apps the apple way though. They are using react native and I am willing to bet that this does too.

I always thought it was native. You can write extensions using React, yes, but I was under the impression those got compiled to their internal Swift-based UI components

Raycast could be both native and written with React Native:

React Native itself renders JSX as native components (not a web view that renders HTML/CSS).

People conflate React with HTML because that is the most common renderer, but React can be rendered into anything.


This is mindnumbingly stupid. We truly live in the worst timeline.

I love passkeys in my selfhosted vaultwarden, but I agree the UX for older people is not quite there.

Passwords are terrible UX for old people in my experience. They try use the same password everywhere, but then password complexity requirements mean they can't use the exact same password everywhere, and then they forget which variant they used on which service, so they just end up going through the reset password flow every time they sign in. I am not convinced that's a better UX than them just using their fingerprint or face to login.

I disable them on every app that lets me. It is in every way worse UX than simply opening the browser.

Eh you probably shouldn’t link to a signup page with no info about features. Can you tell more about this? Is it open source? What tech stack?


Heya. React 18 + TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS, React Router:

Real-time chat (Socket.io) with typing + presence

Channel organization (categories + text channels)

Direct messages (1:1)

Wiki/docs knowledge base (Markdown editor + version history)

Roles & permissions (RBAC: admin/mod/member)

Moderation (reports, kick/ban, mod queue)

Message tools (edit/delete/pin, Markdown, GIF picker)

File uploads (image sharing)

Dark mode + mobile-responsive UI


Yeah it’s so odd that none of the open-source alternatives have this feature. No video calls are not an option. We need video/voice rooms!


If an option doesn't have that then it's not a Discord alternative for me or many of my friends.


Aside from Discord, nobody has gotten this right since Yahoo! Live and Tinychat. Both are dead.


You might be interested in https://kloak.app I believe. It's a privacy-first alternative. It's still in early alpha days, but have most of the things set up. Oh, and we’ve got voice channels with screen sharing in beta too.


How do you plan on funding it? Also, the landing page mentions "You own your community data" but it just looks like you own it and allow us to access it?

Seems to me you're just re-building discord.


"Messages are stored on our servers and are technically accessible at the database level , we won't pretend otherwise. Kloak doesn't require email, phone, or personal info to create an account, your identity isn't tied to your messages the way it would be on other platforms.

Our goal is to implement end-to-end encryption for DMs so that even we can't read message content. But we're not there yet, since after all we need to make sure the platform is safe and not to shield illegal content being sent."

This is a message from one of their founders I found while exploring the app.


Why would they name their software sewer?


Try Ballistol, it’s so good!


Came to post this; Ballistol works brilliantly; and can also be used as a leather conditioner, wound dressing, & marinade for carne de cheval, with the addition of some juniper berries and a little rosemary.


The best all-rounder is Ballistol. Smells way less than 3-in-1 and performs great!
