I am considering them, but reviews on Trustpilot are less than favorable. I'm not sure whether or not to trust the site.

Man, thanks for building PocketBase. It's very pleasant to use!

I think he left due to conflict of interest with Tesla which is basically an AI company now.

That's for the interactive tutorial, not for the apps your build with Svelte/Kit.
Please consider Basecamp’s pricing model instead of $/user/mo.

What is the point of "productivity" if you're not accomplishing what is important in your life?
Re:Goodbye, Feedly on Saturday July 02, 2022 @07:45AM (#31958216)
BTW I didn't understand the need for connecting Feedly to reader. Why didn't you simply import the OPML from Feedly to Reeder?
The hardware and the OS which are second and to none IMO. And yes I’ve used Ubuntu and Windows for years and they don’t even come close.
You basically tried to make a point and refute it on the same post lol
Don’t think so. Almost every third party app does downloading right except Apple’s. It’s like they don’t even try to recover at all. You can’t resume updates - only on Apple related software. I remember spending 5 days trying to update to Mojave because the update kept failing.
What amazes me about Apple is that they have hardware and operating system that are really great. Every other software I have used that is made by them is buggy beyond belief. Have you tried Apple TV. I stopped using it not because of lack of content but was so unreliable to the extent that you feel like it says “fuck you”. You have one packet loss, your download is doomed. Starting is takes multiple seconds. Try to search something, the UI will freeze. I love Apple products and I hope they fix their services.

Thank you. Any project that closes a real issue without solving it is a joke to me.
Your point of view makes sense but removing the documentation how to build and deploy the parts of the code they open sourced before shows an intent that they don't want people using it. They could just announce they are no longer open source and put the docs on Readme and move on. But putting the docs down silently is breaking the promise that was the tagline of their product.

Ask HN: Did Plivo silently abandon open sourcing their software?

Their launch tagline was "Open source alternative to Twilio". I just took a look at their repository(https://github.com/plivo/plivoframework) and it looks like it hasn't been updated since 2015 and the documentation has been down for long time(https://groups.google.com/g/plivo-users/c/ZuImvGKhnno/m/Uj-109PQCQAJ). I couldn't find any announcement that they have become closed source. I think I...
