It's constantly getting the red head step child treatment and has been described as:

Clunky, cheap, outdated, and just plain bad.

The goal was retro (as in payphones). I just see the beauty in it much like a parent sees the beauty in their own child... but is this one really that foul?! Why?!

Surprisingly your the only one who has mentioned Keycloak so far?! I switched several projects from Auth0 to it some time ago and didn't look back... particularly when they started tightening things since said projects were not even profitable.

Good points. The primary motivation is simply to get useful feedback from legit users. Similar to when you post something on Show HN but more focused. An NDA for essentially a few minutes of someone's time does seem like a bit much... so likely it wouldn't fit this type of need.

Re:Ask HN: Chat roulette for devs with side projects? on Sunday October 29, 2023 @01:51PM (#38060951)

Could be an option I suppose.

Ask HN: Chat roulette for devs with side projects?

Where you could live stream with someone with the explicit idea of having them spend X (2-5 min) time trying your thing, taking instruction, providing feedback, whatever for that allotted time. For every slot you receive, you also must give back time to someone else. Why? Because it's hard as hell getting any kind of organic eyeballs on a thing if you have zero following.Does such a thing...

Initial post on THN was great in terms of feedback, traffic, etc. but back to dribbles and depression (dead pan facial expression). I feel like a techno thot waiting for the next rush of "attention"... but is it the same... I wonder? All that aside, I'm really wondering what the smarter individuals that me out there would do to grow this "idea" or simply dust bin it?! I mean it's useful for me, but... maybe I'm the weirdo in the room... I probably am... no doubt.

Just use this https://archive.is/ seems to work fairly well and however it's crawling the sites bypasses paywalls... at least for me.

Just built Clippings with hosted MongoDB, Redis (docker), Node.js (Express) for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend. Docker Swarm to manage containers running on Digital Ocean.

In terms of simplicity... I still haven't found a reason to k8s-erize anything because while it's what all the "big boys/cool kids/whatever" are using... Docker suites my needs well certainly for MVPs.

It brings me joy. Thanks again for your help as well.

While I agree that the UX WAS obnoxious prior to the fix below, it was not deliberate and has been fixed.

Cheers

Thanks for the additional information. I've updated/closed the GitHub issue below and confirmed the fix.

https://github.com/june07/clippings-frontend/issues/1

Hope you understand that this was an unknown condition prior to your helping out (I'm on Android where back navigation was unaffected) and certainly not a deliberate attempt at bad UX just to push a DO ad. Again, thank you for the valuable feedback as it helped solve the problem faster!

Clippings is your modern-day archival tool for online classified ads... like Craigslist!

Opened an issue for this https://github.com/june07/clippings-frontend/issues/1 if you want to add some additional detail about what you are experiencing on your end...

Can provide more information... ad, error, etc?

I appreciate this further use of the tattoo analogy. At its core, the data exists on a server, but it's intriguing to ponder how many times it has been duplicated, cached, and stored. How many individuals and devices have contributed to this process? Is there an absolute method to ascertain this complex journey?

Undoubtedly, nothing on this planet, whether digital or physical, internet-based or in print, is truly everlasting. Eventually, everything returns to the earth, a poignant reminder of impermanence.

Drawing a parallel to tattoo removal by laser, I'm reminded of an old girlfriend's experience. While she possessed a remarkable pain threshold, it was an ordeal she wouldn't willingly revisit.

So again, I still feel data online is very much LIKE a tattoo in its permanent nature, and time only strengthens that feeling.

I hate getting a push notification for a Reddit post and then clicking on it only to find... "This posting has been deleted by its author." (the Reddit version of that)

We are headed to Black Mirror episode https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Entire_History_of_You, just saying. Particularly with smart glasses seemingly (for real this time) on the horizon. So, tools like this will pale in comparison to what's to come.

No 404 anymore by the way, again, it was an issue with the Github deployment pipeline.

Re:Show HN: I got tired of reading "This posting has been deleted by i... on Thursday October 12, 2023 @03:50PM (#37862282)

Love this.

Re:Show HN: I got tired of reading "This posting has been deleted by i... on Thursday October 12, 2023 @03:50PM (#37862275)

Unfortunately, when you post ANYTHING online... one must assume it's like a tattoo... that is to say permanent. Not saying it's right or wrong (because believe me I have my own privacy/trust issues), just saying it is reality.

Re:Show HN: I got tired of reading "This posting has been deleted by i... on Thursday October 12, 2023 @03:43PM (#37862178)

Yep! Sorry to hear that but it certainly stands as a use case for this.

Re:Show HN: I got tired of reading "This posting has been deleted by i... on Thursday October 12, 2023 @03:42PM (#37862163)

Actually, discovered that site after building this! lol It did seem to be a good resource. However, there are certainly differences between Clippings and it. One big one being that Clippings is more narrowly focused on classifieds and not the web in general.

Not sure about the browser extension...

Re:Show HN: I got tired of reading "This posting has been deleted by i... on Thursday October 12, 2023 @03:36PM (#37862044)

Removed the ads until I can fix the problem you are experiencing. Click on App update available or reload the page again, if you'd be so kind.

Which listing? I can try on my end as well.
