Do you share PR links on Slack? Or a dedicated channel? Or DM?Is there a tool?Currently, I am looking for a way to not keep PRs open for a long time without having to tag the reviewer in person. Please no AI tools.

Close, got tech interview at least, but they had a req for higher experience.
Nothing fancy, but it's a "terminal" with xterm. Helps keeping "Do you know REST and git?" type of recruiters away at least.

Author of devtools-x here. Thank you for the support :D. We have 40+ features now (not counting json-to-yaml and yaml-to-json as 2 different tools), feel free to request any specific feature you want on the issue tracker. Will be more than happy to implement it.

I am working on a desktop TOTP manager app, because it's super hard to switch to phone everytime I want to login somewhere.
https://github.com/Sparkenstein/tautp
you can guess what it's written in, don't use it yet, although it works but I store data in plaintext for now, looking for cross-platform solutions to encrypt it but so far no luck. will be adding lots of features soon.
plus there's https://github.com/fosslife/devtools-x too
