Consider giving https://tefter.io a try, you can even use it for work to share bookmarks with your colleagues. (disclaimer: I develop it)


https://tefter.io It also supports teams and shortcuts (url aliases).


Hades on Nintendo Switch. Each zone can take 5 minutes to complete making it perfect for a break.


Cool project!

Is importing one's listening history and liked songs from Spotify in the plans?


Thanks! Yes, not in the short-term plans but definitely on my radar. I myself would want to do a bulk import of some of my lists (e.g. "Listened in 2021") from Discogs and Spotify, so I pretty much need this myself.


Shameless plug: I run https://tefter.io a pinboard alternative which supports importing your bookmarks from pinboard and even has team collaboration features.


No shame in that, since your service is even cheaper. Oh. Nevermind. /s

(In perspectice for 39$/month I can self host 1+ premium vps server(s) and run one or more of those https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted#boo...)


I have an even cheaper service for you, an open-source self-hosted bookmarking service (Espial) that can import from pinboard export files.

Hey, for a fair comparison with pinboard you should check out our personal pricing plans, https://www.tefter.io/personal which start from $9/year. The 39$/month you mentioned is for team workspaces of unlimited members.


Another thing worth trying, is connecting a Livebook instance (see: https://livebook.dev/) to a running application. Keep in mind Livebook allows for multiple users to work on the same notebook at once so this can come handy in pair-programming / debugging situations.


> All these technologies are just tools and you decide what tool you choose to get work done

Setting priorities is hard and developers want to try new shiny stuff for fun and also to feel up-to-date.

It usually goes like this, some developers pitch framework X, promising to improve metric Y. In the process many parts of the system change, making it incredibly hard to validate the improvement on metric Y. There's also lack of incentives to validate tech choices. On the other hand being familiar with many frameworks makes some devs feel more senior compared to their colleagues or competition.

Backend development suffers from this as well, you'll be surprised to learn how many nano-scale companies, employing a handful of developers practice buzzword-driven development, with a stack consisting of microservices, Kafka, NoSQL, lambdas.


That may be true in isolated cases but I don't think that wide-scale adoption of these technologies is some form of mass hysteria. I think it is because they solve real problems. I am not really a fan of the modern JS ecosystem for a variety of reasons but building stuff in React seems infinitely easier to me than writing plain HTML/CSS. I'm sure if you cut your teeth writing HTML/CSS (I didn't, have mostly been a backend developer) then you don't need to fancy new tools, but I hear an echo of "why does anyone need a garbage collector?" or "why use C when you can just write in assembler?" in these sorts of comments.


Is the User schema[1] extensible? Can I add custom attributes or metadata to my users?

Hey, Braden, one of the founders, very soon. This one is definitely low hanging fruit, and I actually want it as well for a side project I'm helping a friend with :)


I've seen that, it's so scammy. I feed bad for people who'll fall for it.

What can we do to improve financial literacy so that nobody ever takes investing advice from a bus ad?


Increased financial literacy is precisely why people are drawn to Bitcoin. If Bitcoin didn't exist, there'd simply be a mad rush on stocks and gold (well, there has been one).

The media has spent years teaching people about what happens in countries with high inflation, and people are now rightfully scared it's coming to their countries too.


Second that. I hear back my own voice, it drains the battery and the connection is almost always choppy.

I wanted to be able to use Signal to replace whatsapp, telegram and FB messenger. I've convinced some of my friends to install it, but none of them are happy with it.

On both mobile and desktop sometimes messages take hours to appear and on mobile it reserves ~2GB of storage for no apparent reason.

I trust that people behind Signal are brilliant got the security right, but the UX is simply not there yet.


2 GB on a fresh install? That would be definitely a bug. Did you check the storage usage (settings, storage)? Is it there as well?

Your debug logs would also be welcome for messages taking hours to appear. For mobile it's usually something with battery savings or FCM. For desktop that's the first time I read about that, are you sure that the messages had actually been sent?

I feel that for mobile it is still not as reliable as WhatsApp, but for desktop it's nice to be able to get your messages without mobile connection.


In case the storage is due to numerous messages and media, you have the option to limit the number of messages saved for each conversation, default is no limit I think.


It was indeed mostly media. There doesn't seem to be an option to limit the maximum size for media, or for remote backups.
