• Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users

  The beginning of enshitification of discord (while 100% expected) for some reason hits harder then any other service I've used throughout all these years. It has entirely replaced social media for me. It just felt more organic to me then anything else. So... Since I've heard about the ads coming to discord, and I have looked into alternatives. They do exist, in varying quality, and there are programs for some of... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Qilin: A Starter Project Template For Every Open Source Project

  GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• A man has been swatted 47 times for making a joke about Norm Macdonald

  Tangential: the article notes that Telegram is an “encrypted messaging app”. While this is technically true, it's worth keeping in mind that it's not end-to-end encrypted, so it's less secure in that regard than, say, Signal or even WhatsApp. Telegram does have opt-in end-to-end encrypted one-on-one chats, but those are very inconvenient to use. For a properly encrypted chat app, including group chats (opt-in),... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Launching Default End-to-End Encryption on Messenger

  I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance. [0] https://matrix.org. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Meta is pulling the plug on Messenger chats on Instagram

  Trillian mod here. There's this new thing called Beeper, works on matrix.org. It's not as the good old times, but I'm currently using whatsapp, FB messenger, discord, telegram, signal, imessage and a few more. It's not Cerulean experience, but it's... Slowly improving. Source: 7 months ago

• Are Sync Engines The Future of Web Applications?

  If you've been following trends in the web-dev world, you'd know that sync engines have been a centrepiece in several of them, namely: progressive web apps, offline-first apps, and the lately trending term: local-first software. You might have even looked into some of the databases that offer a built-in sync engine such as PouchDb or online services that do the same (e.g., Firestore). I have too, but my general... - Source: dev.to / 4 days ago

• Show HN: RemoteStorage – sync localStorage across devices and browsers

  How does this compare to PouchDB[1]? [1]: https://pouchdb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Local-first software: You own your data, in spite of the cloud (2019)

  Meteor wrapped the MongoDB API for this purpose. You are working with collections and can run the same queries over them, regardless of whether you are connected to a DB instance or the browser's local storage. For CouchDB an equivalent exists in the form of PouchDB: https://pouchdb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Modern SQL Databases Are Changing Web Development: Part 1

  Not sure if you're thinking more of an official standard but PouchDB is open source and sounds similar to what you're talking about: https://pouchdb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Figma Is a File Editor

  I have another use case that DO would be perfect for, and that's sync for offline first apps. I have two offline first apps, both using PouchDB[1] as client database and CouchDB as server database. I'd love to replace CouchDB with DO. Maybe you can hire some of the people contributing to PouchDB to build a backend for it using DO? [1]: https://pouchdb.com. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
