It's been one month since I launched my open-source email archiver. The community response has been wild, and we just shipped v0.3 based on your feedback!

How do you prioritize contributions from community vs. strategic roadmap needs?

Open source projects often juggle community requests and long-term direction. What frameworks or rules help you avoid getting pulled in too many directions?

Text to Speech Free Open-Source Code

Hi,
I tried searching GitHub for a text-to-speech project, but I couldn’t find anything suitable.
Do you have any tips? Maybe you know of some open-source code that could help me.
I also checked a few APIs, but most of them aren’t very affordable.

For anyone interested in a Window Switcher in the form of a Pie Menu

I love the pie menus in Blender and I got fed up with switching to the wrong window when hitting Alt+Tab, so I made something to replace it in the form of a pie menu: MightyPie Revamped. It has the benefit of not needing the taskbar as well (except for the Tray).

I also built in a lot more functionality like media control, maximizing/minimizing windows under the cursor and more.

This is now the second iteration of my program: https://github.com/Rayzorblade23/MightyPie-Revamped

I built Torrentino — one-click movie torrent finder

I’ve always been annoyed at how **cluttered and unreliable torrent sites** are.
Searching for a movie = ads, pop-ups, fake buttons. I just wanted something faster and cleaner.

So I built **Torrentino** → [https://torrentino.tech](https://torrentino.tech)

* One-click verified torrent downloads
* Clean, ad-free interface
* Smarter indexing algorithm for better search accuracy

**Stack:** React (frontend) + Flask (backend), containerized with Docker + deployed on [Fly.io](http://Fly.io) \+ frontend on Vercel.

This is an MVP — I’d love thoughts from fellow builders:

* How would you extend this? (multi-source scraping, subnoscripts, related movies, caching, etc.)
* Any feedback on SEO/distribution?

Campfire (the self-hosted group chat) just became free and open source!

Hi!

DHH (co-founder of Basecamp) announced yesterday that they're making their group chat software open source (MIT licensed) and free for everyone to use. This is fantastic news, especially considering this piece of software previously required a $299 payment just to access the codebase (far too expensive, in my opinion).

It looks like we now have another excellent open source alternative to Slack and Microsoft Teams, thanks to this move. I really hope more companies will follow this trend soon.

What are your thoughts?

Discogs alternative

Is there an alternative to Discogs for cataloguing physical music media? My specific problem is that I cannot add a certain bootleg record to my collection, even though I can find it in the Discogs database. I suspect this is due to the transaction-focused nature of Discogs and enshittification.

Si tenemos una duda se la preguntamos a la IA, la IA, entrenada por humanos, nos dará una respuesta (probablemente equivocada) ¿Por qué no nos consultamos directamente entre personas?

Creo que la utilidad de la IA está en analizar muchísimos datos y dar valoraciones estadísticas en base a patrones. Más allá, la encuentro innecesaria. No entiendo por qué hay que pagar a una empresa para que nos dé información, cuando podríamos consultar directamente con la persona que tiene la información de primera mano.
Antes de esta locura de la IA, propuse a una gran empresa la creación de una app que sirviera para poder consultar con un experto en cualquier área, porque todos somos expertos en algo. Los usuarios se registraban también como expertos y tenía un sistema de puntos que permitía que los mejores expertos pudieran ganar dinero con sus consejos, así como la participación de empresas. Yo creo que con la publicidad adecuada hubiera sido un éxito. La empresa nunca contestó, ahora tienen una IA para dar el conocimiento humano bajo pago. Sigo pensando que no les necesitamos, que los humanos ya podemos traspasar nuestro conocimiento directamente y que cada una se nosotros podríamos tener una agenda de contactos inabarcable. Y esto no le gusta a las empresas.
