Fair question. Most of the open-source tools I’ve seen focus on generating a single commit message from a diff. Zyg does that too, but the main idea is different: it treats your commits as raw material for project updates.
Instead of just producing “better commit messages,” it can take a series of commits on a branch and turn them into a narrative of progress - the kind of thing you’d actually paste in Slack, send to a PM, or have emailed to stakeholders automatically.
Thanks! compared to the other players in this space $50 is actually on the lower end. But you're right that $50 isn't pocket change. In the spirit of full transparency - We're still figuring out our pricing - if you're interested in trying out LimeJourney and pricing is a blocker, shoot me an email at tobi@limejourney.com and we can work something out.
Don't know much about this but it seems they say they are a Customer Data Platform (managing customers, leads and visitors data) - LimeJourney is a customer engagement platform allowing business engage with their customers, we essentially combine data from various touchpoints including CDPs to create more effective marketing strategies.
Hey, great question. I'm familiar with Laudspeaker, Not so much with Mautic & in all honesty I don't think there are any fundamental diffs between LJ(limeJourney) & the options on the market. Yeah, we have some AI stuff in the mix but ultimately I did not set out to build out something different instead I wanted to provide an alternative, less commercial solution for smaller use cases or customer engagement.
atp - all the features are available and can be self hosted & I think it is going to be that way for a long time - This is a side project and so I'm not really pressed to make money from it instead I am excited about seeing the community get some sort of value from it. If for some reason we need to further commercialise the project all features that wouldn't be self hosted will live in the enterprise directory and will be developed by an in-house team not the open source community.
More importantly, it is the world’s fastest Lua interpreter to date, outperforming LuaJIT’s interpreter by 28% and the official Lua interpreter by 171% on average on a variety of benchmarks
This blogpost by a self-taught engineer at Uber gives a framework for deciding what to blog about that I really resonate with.
"As a rule of thumb, any topic that passes any of the following litmus tests is a good candidate for a blog post or conference talk:
1. The most senior engineer you know would find the information and subject matter compelling.
2. People who read the post think: “Wow, I can’t believe they managed to <something really hard or difficult to figure out>. I really wish we had someone like that who could help us with <thorny problem>”.
3. The subject matter is deep in a way that readers are unlikely to be able to obtain the same information anywhere else."

Winds by stream(https://getstream.io/winds/) is now shut down but I did enjoy using it to manage all my RSS feeds. Good thing it's open source been considering self hosting.
Of course they should be published! They have a lot of value for people who aren't able to psychically attend the conferences. A better take will be "stop publishing unedited conference videos" & that is still even quite silly as the organisers are trying to make information available for free
[...] but the moment people start to make money off of pirated works it starts to feel much more wrong.
"Piracy" is expensive! Most people do not donate to support these things it's understandable if they decide to charge a few cents or bucks to keep the light on.
