Why is it that stuff written in Go always has to tell you that it is written in Go? As a user I don’t choose apps based on the language they’re written in? (Serious question.)
Actually… I do :/ Even though I have no idea of the programing realm, most of my self-hosted service via docker written in Go tend to be more “reliable”, faster, easy to use?
I’m always happy to self-host somthing written in golang. But I do agree, its the new age “I use arch BTW” meme for programing language !
Whenever you have applications were implementations are plentiful the only real differentiation you can do without creating a different user experience is the technologies used to develop it. The importance of which in people’s perspective is several things, mostly supporting technologies they like and want to see grow and possibly being skilled in the underlying technologies to actually contribute back.
Certain technologies are also just hot garbage, I swear to God if I have to install another electron app for some messaging platform I will shit myself.
I can feel you in Last Part: Element, Discord, Revolt and Signal. Only TG desktop is a non-electron messaging app which I use.
Abaddon for discord and gomuks for matrix but yes they are not as convenient
How does it compare to something like FreshRSS? Does it provide any kind of standard API? Do android RSS apps that work with hosted RSS work with this?
Why can’t people include just a few screenshots of their app…
Yup. That alone is enough for me to just ignore a software and keep moving.
how are people using rss these days? i never found a good use for it.
Every single open source and linux related blog has an RSS feed. A reader groups all those in a single “inbox”, I save / share what I find interesting. It’s an awesome way to condense news.
Use it to get info on new torrents mostly movies and games. And I hate reading gaming articles in a browser so rss is the only best experience for me.
