Thank you for the offer. It doesn't work for me right now.
Also because I have not used Toby in a long time.

I'll still follow the progress as an interested observer.
There is no wip.co project attached to this post. What is the projects name?

Used Toby or something similar for advanced session restore years ago.
Switched to Workona to sync and organize much better. Except for some bugs here and there, it was great.
Switched to Arc later.
Just now switched to Zen.
Still have my Workona subscription for some stuff.

I'm not sure I want anything else :)

There is nothing available on that domain. Or are you still working on the switch?

I am not super deep into parsers, so I cannot give feedback on the content too much.
The introduction about what the project is was nice, but was missing a quick note about what you will show in the video and why.
The jump into discussing the parser with an example was a bit too abrupt for me, but again, I am not working in that field and didn't take the time to understand it :)

In the end, it depends on for who you are making the video.

Even though I didn't watch the whole thing, I hope this helps a little.

The video is not available right now ;)

Yes, I am :D Yeah, it's a bigger trend there. Depending on the social and tech circle.
It's mostly about control, data privacy and sometimes about cost as well. Commercial services have feature creep, remove features, change prices, use your data and might vanish at any moment.

One theory why open-source in general is more popular in Germany that made it's round is that the standard of living is pretty high, especially for devs. So they have the time to work on open-source and self-hostable software.

And it's also fun :)

I'm also still working on moving back from freelance to product development, and the discussion and exchange of advice motivated me to do it sooner than later.
Did you attend the virtual meetups before?

Oh, I realized that the newest post (of the day?) also gets a prime spot on the main page, to be fair :)

If it's possible to self-host, I always try to do it.
Deployer.org is my choice to deploy PHP applications.
Most of the stuff I do for #freiheitswolke and for #rivendell, though.

I get it. There was a mix of frustration, anger but also validation, when other devs cloned #vendordetailsomo. It felt like an accomplishment for the project and work to be worthy enough of imitation. Isn't that called the highest form of flattery?
If somebody deems you relevant enough to follow your progress, you might have made an impression on them.

Maybe it will come to you in the next days, why it bothered you.
It might not be the follow at all, but a reminder of something else. Especially, if they feel like a real threat to your business.
