How does it compare to Coolify? https://coolify.io

cdubzzz · a year ago

I started out with Dokku and it was fine, but ultimately switched to Coolify solely because it has a web UI. Dokku Pro has one as well, but my use case was primarily just for hosting a demo and spinning up instances from GitHub PRs so didn’t feel worth spending money on.

That was a long wall of text for stating that a subscription isn't worth it.

That said, expecting 12 months worth of new content seems a bit much (almost entitled). Not everyone has consumed everything worth watching.

cdubzzz · 2 years ago

On every service we have ever subscribed I’d say we’ve streamed all that we want to stream within about six months at most. After that there needs to be basically a constant stream of new (good) content or it does not feel worth it.

One counter point to why I personally pay for Disney+ is that I have kids, and kids love repeat content. I don't think new content particularly matters to them, at least not at their age.

I wonder how much Disney+'s numbers will be helped by that tranche of subscribers.

This what I use the PBS Kids apps for. Free repetitive content without any kind of monetization or need for me to curate.

I have to say—it's a bit unsettling to me! I released it in 2006; I was a teenager. Obviously, it's evolved since then, and others have taken responsibility for it, but the interface is still the same. I regret that: I didn't know anything about design when I was a teenager. It's not at all graceful. Serves me right, I guess, that I'm now confronted with that poor interface regularly as an adult.

> I remember working with it in Quinn on Mac OS X like 10 or 15 years ago.

God, I still miss Quinn. For years after its official demise I still had a copy, which I kept playing, until the 32bitocalypse made that impossible.

I wish I’d kept the damn server code around somewhere. Lost to Internet history ):

It's cool Sparkle is still around and offering an alternative for app updates. I remember working with it in Quinn on Mac OS X like 10 or 15 years ago.

That’s all well and good if you’re on Linux, but docker is super slow on Mac and windows. I’ve often worked places that develop iOS apps, s were stuck on macs, and thus alternatives to docker are very welcome.

Asdf can automatically install tool chain versions based on a plain text file stored in your repository, so it’s pretty plug and play too.

VirtioFS[0] is making a _huge_ difference on the macOS side. I hated using Docker on macOS for a long time and started testing it as soon as it came out. Had some bad bugs initially and apparently does still have kinks being worked out but I’ve been using it consistently for a few months now and actually forgot all about how terrible the experience used to be. It is such a great improvement.

Baby Buddy[0] just turned five and I’m still hacking away on it! Well mostly reviewing PRs and helping contributors. I get a great deal of enjoyment out of interacting with its users and contributors.

I have the DDG iOS app and there is an option to remove the flame animation. Never liked it. Too fancy and seems over the top when I just want a brand new temporary session.
