• Too many Mac apps are being built with Electron

  That argument would hold more power if there wasn't an existing native client for Slack and Discord, made by one person, with all the features I needed, working with absolutely no lag and minimal resource use, working on MacOS, Linux, Windows. Unfortunately the development stopped, or I'd still use it. https://cancel.fm/ripcord/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Recommendations for an alternative native chat client? (Slack, Discord)

  Https://cancel.fm/ripcord/ Used it before, worked OK. Now I use Matrix, so I don't need it anymore. Neat trick: AppImages are squashfs compressed filesystems, so they can have slow startup etc. Fix this with ./app.AppImage --appimage-extract, find the binary in the created folder and run that one instead, so that you pay the decompression cost only once. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Recommendations for an alternative native chat client? (Slack, Discord)

  Not sure if it still works (or will continue to work) but this might be what you're looking for: https://cancel.fm/ripcord/ I've also had fairly good results using gtkcord4, though it takes it little finagling to get up-and-running: https://github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• A Slack clone in 5 lines of bash

  There are a bunch of features in slack beyond the core chat stuff, like: 1. Being connected to multiple communities and switching between them instantly this can be of course simply replaced by connecting to different servers in a tabbed terminal and use the terminal's built-in cmd-1/2/... shortcut, which happens to be the same as in slack. 2. Meta data about others, like their timezone or how to pronounce their... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• I’m having some cpu performance issues and I’m wondering whether if it’s time to upgrade? Using a 2017 MacBook Pro 13inch.

  All three of these are web browsers (slack and vscode are built on electron) that are notoriously RAM-hungry. If you don't want to buy new hardware, switching to using the slack web-app or using a third party client like Ripcord will remove one of those browsers, and using an IDE that isn't a web browser would take out another. You may also find that another browser like Firefox uses less memory than Chrome. Source: 11 months ago

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

  There are no hard and fast rules around this other than remembering to meet your users and contributors where they already are. If you know that they are more likely to hang out on Discord rather than Slack, then having your community channel on Discord is going to serve you well. Some people prefer to keep their communication about a piece of work as close together to the issue and work as possible. One place to... - Source: dev.to / 23 days ago

• 4 Inspiring Tips to Think Like a Consultant

  Listening is a skill that we don't practice enough. If you want to think like a consultant, learning to listen is a critical skill. If a consultant solves problems and connects with others to accomplish things for the collective, it only makes sense that gathering the requirements of problems is a highly valuable skill. And while those requirements might be written, most of the variability and detail will come... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
