Congrats on the launch! What are the key advantages of this compared to OneCLI[1]?

Ice is an open source app solves this problem through an overflow menu:

I use ntfy.sh for sending push notifications from scripts and such. It's open source and free (they have paid plans as well now, but I didn't encounter any limitations in the free plan).

Not an endorsement, just a happy user.

Shottr (https://shottr.cc/) is a great screenshot and annotations app and also includes this feature.

Not a promotion, just a very satisfied user of the app; it's quite beautifully designed.

Re:Google is already pushing WEI (web DRM) into Chromium on Wednesday July 26, 2023 @09:29AM (#36877357)
I haven't noticed any issues on YouTube after subscribing. Before that it used to glitch once in a while possibly to penalize the ad blocking. But that may have been the behaviour in Chrome too for all I know.

Google Meet does have some key features missing on Firefox such as blurring / changing video background.

Re:Show HN: Learn German with Short Stories on Wednesday April 26, 2023 @02:08PM (#35717773)
Experiencing the same issue. Google is falling apart. It's choosing English as the source language with queries like this, and destination is any language which you may have used recently with translate.

A note to the OP:

translate "Fischerboote" to english - doesn't work

translate "Fischerboote" from german - works

You fail to see that the criticism comes from rooting for Firefox and Mozilla through all these years and seeing them focus on everything other than their main product.

I'm willingly to bet HN has a much higher percentage of Firefox users than the internet average, and we are all tired and disappointed in Mozilla's current leadership because they've failed to innovate and keep the browser competitive.

For those looking for a way to filter open ports, check "IP sockets" and type "listen" in the search bar.

Discovered this on HN a few months ago, and it has become indispensable for me. Beautiful software with subtle, nifty innovations in UX.

I love that Jesse is taking a first principles approach with this and not constraining himself with the standard text editor patterns. He's also pretty active on the support forum and very receptive to feedback.

Then what would you glamorize? I'd think that in a free-market economy revenue is a pretty good proxy for usefulness too in most cases.
Re:Ask HN: Is Heroku Being Sunset? on Monday May 09, 2022 @09:43AM (#31313898)
Dokku [1] is a self-hosted alternative that can be hosted on any IaaS

Same here. I have firstname.<digit>@gmail and I keep getting emails for the non-dot variant. And to add to the frustration, in order to unsubscribe some services require you to send an email from the same address. I've never hated Gmail's "convenience" feature of ignoring dots more. If they really wanted to offer it, they should have also given the option of adding/removing dots while sending emails too.

Someone even has a Paypal account on my dot-less email. It beats me how a payments company can let somebody add an email without verification and not offer an easy to way to remove it.

Re:How to Design Better APIs on Saturday March 12, 2022 @03:19AM (#30649879)
I used to work at Akamai and Problem Details is used in most of their APIs. It might have something to do with the fact that one of the RFC authors (Mark Nottingham / @mnot on HN) worked there for a while.
Re:Alpine Linux: Brilliant Linux Distro on Friday March 11, 2022 @02:46PM (#30645096)
Any insight on Laravel/PHP? I've been seeing DNS resolution issues with Alpine as well, but they seem to mainly affect PHP services and not Go.

Which browser do you use? I've never seen it work on archive.is in Firefox. Case in point: https://archive.is/ZPvrO

I'm usually skeptical of these kind of attempts and dismiss them automatically, but this very nicely done! I'm keeping the extension. :)
