I'm trying to see how active a project is, but dependabot spam makes it annoying to find actual commits and to know if those commits are relevant.

There's no need for me to know chai was updated from 5.1.1 to 5.1.2, I want to see what were the most recent actual features implemented.

Hi programmers,

I work from two computers: a desktop and laptop. I often interrupt my work on one computer and continue on the other, where I don't have access to uncommitted progress on the first computer. Frustrating!

Potential solution: using git to auto save progress.

I'm posting this to get feedback. Maybe I'm missing something and this is over complicated?

Here is how it could work:

Creating and managing the separate branch

Alias git commands (such as git checkout), such that I am always on a branch called "[branch]-autosave" where [branch] is the branch I intend to be on, and the autosave branch always branches from it. If the branch doesn't exist, it is always created.

handling commits

Whenever I commit, the auto save branch would be squashed and merged with the underlying branch.

autosave functionality

I use neovim as my editor, but this could work for other editors.

I will write an editor hook that will always pull the latest from the autosave branch before opening a file.

Another hook will always commit and push to origin upon the file being saved from the editor.

This way, when I get on any of my devices, it will sync the changes pushed from the other device automatically.

Please share your thoughts.

This should be a huge boon for introducing people to C# development on Mac and Linux!

Take note though, that the free version comes with mandatory collection of anonymized usage data. As far as I'm aware this cannot be deactivated.

Let him cook, chat.

Posting here also, because [email protected] commented that the API should work as expected on lemm.ee for instance and I don't know where is the right place to post my question. Can someone help?

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/20954226

I try to get comment data for my posts via API from my Lemmy instance, but whatever I try on using the GetComments endpoint it delivers an empty array.

For example ... GET https://programming.dev/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=20878811 leads to:

{
  "comments": []
}

I want to ask here, before creating an issue. Has someone a hint?

Postiz is an open-source social media scheduling tool that is similar to traditional ones: Buffer, Hootsuite, SproutSocial, etc.

https://github.com/gitroomhq/postiz-app/

Postiz supports:

Key features:

• Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)

• Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.

• AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.

• Team support: Invite your team members to manage social media.

• Generic Email Provider & Easier installation experience (drop the default Resend and add a nodemailer option!)

• There are lots of improvements for the docker / docker-compose. It's much easier to deploy everything!

• Added Bluesky, Mastodon, Slack and Discord channels!

• Add multiple options for upload files (locally / R2) - working on S3.

• Improve the refresh token mechanism (even for more complicated ones like Facebook and Instagram)

• Invite to a team has significant fixes but will be refactored.

What's next:

• Postiz is a company run by one person and contributors. Accessing all the support tickets (especially installation) is difficult, so I will focus all my efforts on making installation easier.

• Productivity - many things feel bad when posting, like selecting multiple images and pasting images directly into the editor.

• Basic SSO for the self-hosters, and more advanced ones like Azure AD and Okta for the enterprise.

• Public API (unfortunately, I decided to make this feature paid; I need to make money somehow :/ )

• Tagging brands on Instagram

• Segmenting accounts into customers

• Tagging people on multiple platforms

• Tagging posts for easier searches

• Auto-plug features, like automatic repost / retweet.

I've messed around and worked with many languages but for some reason. Pascal is my favourite! I don't have much experience with Delphi but feel free to discuss Delphi here too!
