   Pretty useful little tool for catching reddit mentions :)

   Easy to setup and forget, would definitely recommend

   F5Bot is awesome. Compared to similar services, it delivers notifications in nearly real-time. I get notified about online discussions mentioning my product as they happen, not a day later.

• Ask HN: What happens with social media monitoring apps once Reddit's API is paid

  For example, a "free" service that I use and is "slightly" monetized by ads in the notification emails. F5Bot https://f5bot.com/. Would Reddit ask them for $12,000 per month? - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Keyword Alert tool?

  I’m using https://f5bot.com/ Works for Reddit and a few other websites. And you get notifications immediately. Not sure if you can set them to be aggregated once a day, in case it’s a requirement. Source: about 1 year ago

• Oh Erlang... where have you been all my life?

  RE: HTTP/Web Sockets/TCP/UDP/etc. - check out NineNines libraries: Ranch (TCP Socket Acceptor), Cowboy (HTTP Server), Gun (HTTP client), and CowLib (General HTTP/SPDY library) are pretty good from what I hear. Source: over 2 years ago

• Build an Elixir Redis Server that's 100x faster than HTTP

  Ranch is a pretty well optimized and battle hardened tcp acceptor. It powers the Cowboy/Phoenix server which scales to extreme level of concurrency and low latency. Cowboy uses ranch to pool and accept connections and I believe it uses {active,once}. https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy https://github.com/ninenines/ranch. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• try-catch vs "let it crash"

  I have a web application which uses cowboy and cachex every so often cachex errors, which means my server returns a 500. Source: over 2 years ago
