Why is it so hard to create simple, but beautiful app store screenshots? I tried several tools and they either want money or the image resolution export is crap. Unbelievable!That's why I build screenbuilder.app. Easy and completely free to create images for your store without any size editing afterwards.Completely free, runs in your browser. No images or processing is done on my server. Super...

The last couple weeks have been working on a parking spot app for Taipei and New Taipei. Finding a available spot, especially during weekends is very difficult. There are some apps, but only in Mandarin, so I did a English version.
If you are in the area, try it out https://taipeiparking.com/ - Android app and web app.

Please do, best smartwatch ever. If we get a LTE version so we can leave the phone at home, that would be magical.
Any chance for a iPadOS release?

Love it. Always wanted to have something like this for the Google Watch. Easy to stay update and receive alerts, but dont need to setup a second phone/device.
Your product looks awesome!
I am building something like that, but currently only targeting public/private repos and releases. Would be possible to pull more settings from the api, more difficult for private repos though. Hit me up at

I have a second Nokia phone that keeps sim cards from other countries that I dont need all the time (e.g. 2FA). Receiving txt is free and just need to top it up once per year to keep the number running.
The goal is to go passwordless.
Fantastic idea with the different topics
I really like magic link + 2FA which gives a bit more security.
it seems quite pricey for a vendor lock in option or not?
I tend to agree, but which provider do you use?
The problem with simple auth is that it gets complicated with TOTP/2FA which I believe is necessary nowadays.
I think you are right so see what is most popular with the language (python in my case) and stick to it, but there are lots of Identity providers our there and they have different pricing schemes.
I will definitely check out ory.sh I have not heard of them before.

How did you decided which authentication service you use for your Saas? Built in or external service provider?
I hope they will release a rss feed for the database
Always tried to make the ESP32 fetch an image, but never succeeded (with Arduino though)
