One frustrating trend I’ve noticed in many open-source projects is maintainers closing issues as quickly as possible—often in a dismissive and even confrontational manner. It sometimes feels like a game, where the goal is to shut down as many issues as possible rather than foster meaningful discussion.

But here’s the thing: issues aren’t just demands for the maintainer to do work. They serve a much bigger purpose in open-source projects:

✅ They help users realize they’re not alone—people with the same issue can come together, share insights, or even hire someone to solve it.

✅ They serve as documentation—a record of what’s been discussed, what problems exist, and what solutions have been proposed.

✅ They create opportunities for new contributors—someone trying their hand at coding might pick up an issue, or someone with the same problem might decide to implement a fix.

✅ They signal what users actually need—even if the maintainer doesn’t plan to fix something, an open issue can in

Still an alpha software, but really cool concept nonetheless!

Managarr - A TUI and CLI to help you manage your Servarrs.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release, be that in code, issues, or enhancement suggestions! You all help fuel my passion for working on this and it doesn't go unappreciated! 😄

As always, you can try out the changes yourself via the Managarr Demo Site

Breaking Changes

• Managarr now supports multiple instances of the same Servarr with custom names and ordering. (See Features below) To accommodate this, configuration files must be updated so that all Servarrs listed beneath radarr, sonarr, etc., be updated to be lists, not individual Servarrs. For example: to migrate from the following config:

   undefined

      
  radarr:
    host: 192.168.0.78
    port: 7878
    api_token: someApiToken1234
  sonarr:
    host: 192.168.0.89
    port: 8989
    api_token: someApiToken1234
  
    

  You would change the above configurat

Hey, I built a clipboard manager mainly for windows, but it also supports Linux and macOS.

The reason, very simple I just don't like the default windows clipboard manager it does not have a search feature it's laggy it does not have an unlimited history and much more.

So I built Qopy which aims to fix all of this.

At the moment it's a very basic clipboard manager, but I have a few features planned that will definitely make it stand out.

Much like everyone else, I got fed up with search engines. So I decided to make a giant blocklist that cleans up garbage search results!

I browsed other blocklists and wasn't very satisfied from what exists now; the goal of this one is to be super organized and transparent, explaining why each site was blocked via issues. Contributions welcome!

Even though around 100 domains are blocked so far, I already noticed a big improvement in casual searches. You'd be surprised how some AI generated websites can dominate the #1 page on DuckDuckGo.

Changelog

v1.24.4 - 2024-06-24 - Flat Sun

Focus in this release has been on improving and refactoring frontend code, adding UI features such as column and row hiding and locking through Visibility and Position meta classes. Other UI related features, such as supporting the height and width of individual cells have also been implemented, allowing for column and row span functionality.

Additional frontend changes include adding a marker, which allows cells to be selected and improves the way input is passed on to underlying UI cell content. This allows for better widget and chart functionality among other improvements for code that wishes to extend the frontend functionality.

Finally, a more flexible approach is now supported around providing custom HTML/CSS/JS allowing for alternative styling and other such changes to the frontend rendering. Two view configs are provided out of the box to illustrate this, the compact and the spacious, with compact being the default choice w
