it is so beautiful

this question comes up often enough there is a site dedicated to it: https://iselmdead.info/.

for the open minded: building in elm will change the way you see software development. like the matrix red pill blue pill scene - you won’t be the same afterwards

this is very clever. I wonder what other use cases could leverage this approach

it is very much alive. it’s lack of churn is a feature not a bug.

we love to see it

we are using rust on the backend

Theres an opportunity here for someone to build a "platform" that makes this all plug-n-play; like what the apple/google app stores have done but where the end user has control.

Something along the lines of someone buys some hardware with this platform on it and gets a gui that lets me install "apps" on top of it.

Personally, I've got a home setup that is on its way to what the op has; but I think there's demand from non-techy folks to get off the big co's apps and onto privacy focused ones that they control.

this is such a great resource, highly recommended

this is a cool project!

I’m also interested in trying this out

I deleted my account for the same reasons. Also canned my LinkedIn. Gsuite is next!

How do citizens protect their privacy as imaging gets better and more available?

Oh crap. I’m Michael Scott.

I’ve been building/maintaining a rust/graphql/postgres api for the last year with a moderately complex domain - it is very uneventful.

That thing just works all the time. I don’t have to track down issues very often.

It was harder to build for sure, but man it is a joy to work on.

Thanks for posting, I just donated too. Signal is doing important work and I hope they can continue under this new load :)

Thanks for sharing this. Very cool use case for old kindles

Bravo. This is very cool. Well done shipping it without getting bogged down in all the possible features and workflows that could be part of this sort of thing.

Rust's type safety and error handling are helpful tools to have in your belt when gluing together the pieces needed for a web api. I have been working on a new product at my day job that has needed to change a lot as we learn and grow and I am happy with how Rust has been reliable in the face of that change.
