I have tried many ๐Ÿ˜… but the one I've settled on is @tinybase.bsky.social, lots of backend storage options and sync protocols. I have found pairing it with Yjs and Hocus Pocus (a Yjs server) gives me the best results with the most flexibility.

Example, web-based podcast player: podrain.app

I am jealous of East-coasters traveling west, they get a couple free hours in the morning to sleep in, or be an early bird without really trying ๐Ÿ˜’

As a Vue-head myself, I agree ๐Ÿ˜ž I have a bunch of side projects that I was able to convert pretty easily, but I also didn't use very many Vue-specific libraries that depended on the deep internals of the framework, luckily. It definitely fragmented the ecosystem.

This has been quite a journey, but I'm ready to share a side project that has been cooking for years... a purely web-based podcast client!

Introducing Podrain. Built with @nuxt.com, @tinybase.bsky.social, @tur.so, @cloudflare.social and many other wonderful tools. Start using it at podrain.app

Pulling the business name from your state's Secretary of State website or some other government-backed source where all the business names are all-caps?

I've run into this limitation with a different DB client. I haven't pursued it, but it's good to know I'm not the only one with this issue :D

Chat-gippity says it's likely an issue with Linux filesystem permissions on the server preventing writes from a remote client

Deno and Hono were perfect for this because I just installed Deno on the server Factorio is running on, and created a single app.ts file with everything needed for running server commands, copying files, and serving the web app itself. Hard to imagine doing this so quickly with any other stack.

I host a Factorio server for my friends, but they keep destroying stuff when I'm not playing with them and keep asking me to reset the server ๐Ÿ™„

Well, no more! I created a quick web app with @deno.land and #honojs to restore an autosave of their choosing. And they can download the save files too!

Might be a fun opportunity to hack on the client and add that feature in!

Maybe the Laravel starter pack? bsky.app/starter-pack...

My method has been "I hope this person is on Bluesky, lemme check. Oh sweet"
