Recommended video codecs?

What are recommended video codecs which are open source and or royalty free?

So far I've only really found VP9 and AV1 SVT, but they require really good hardware. x264 and x265 seem to be open source by have royalties.

Yet another audio/video chat app! https://videome.video

Hey all, after way too long, here is my 1st open source app. Its a audio video chat app I built with Svelte5 and Cloudflare's RealTimeKit and a bit of EyeCandy! I've always liked WebRTC stuff, so I joined Cloudflare's RealTimeKit's beta program to help them get it sorted:

This is my 1st open source project, so please let me know how I can improve!

Thanks!

I think we should create an alternative to n8n

Last night, I did run n8n on a new container using docker. they did ask a lot of questions. yes I can ignore them. but this is a clear sign that they soon will be moving to commercial plans and other non open source things. why don't we have other good alternative of n8n? (if you know a good one please comment) if this is infact the case, I think we should start building a good alternative in case they go commercial.

Introducing QRGeneratorXMR: Open-Source QR Code Generator for Monero and More (MIT Licensed)

I just open sourced my project, QRGeneratorXMR, a privacy-focused QR code generator built with a special emphasis on Monero (XMR) payments, but versatile enough for any crypto, URLs, text, Wi-Fi creds, and more. It's 100% client-side, so no data ever leaves your browser – perfect for crypto enthusiasts who value security.

Key Features:

Universal QR Generation: Create QRs for crypto addresses, links, plain text, or anything string-based.
Smart Auto-Detect (Beta): Paste an address, and it auto-switches to the right crypto mode (supports Monero, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Zcash, Firo, and custom).
Professional Invoicing: Generate customizable crypto invoices with line items, totals, logos, and embedded QRs. Export as PDF or PNG.
Deep Customization: Styles like dots/rounded patterns, gradients, logo embedding, random color combos, and presets (e.g., Monero Orange, Cyberpunk).
Security Tools: Address verification to prevent clipboard hijacks, input validation, and disposable QRs that self-destruct after a timer.
Tech Highlights: PWA for offline use, responsive design, real-time previews, and exports in PNG/SVG/PDF.

It's built with React easy to set up: just npm install, tweak, npm run build, and deploy.

Check it out on GitHub: https://github.com/SlowBearDigger/QRGeneratorXMR
Live demo: https://slowbeardigger.dev/QR/

Licensed under MIT, so feel free to fork, contribute, or use it in your projects. Pull requests welcome – see CONTRIBUTING.md for details.

If you like it, stars are appreciated! 🚀 Also, donations via Monero: 42w9YaCW8UwZ2BmQztNmUd6JgYVcjW7LXEMTcQqHdmtFCsSo5RGY2eQg2iZ3WyBSSs63gnhczLkJ46yfr4ojCXWT3H1ZBbR

What do you think? Any feedback or ideas for features?

Open Source Word Processor

I have had it up to here with Microsoft always trying to upsell me on their stupid office products when all I want to do was write some words. And even in Word, some features are locked behind subnoscriptions. To address the absolutely heinous fact that I couldn't find a basic, free, minimalist open-source word processor, I present to you Qwill. It has 8 fonts. It has 5 font sizes. 3 headings. It doesn't handle images. It's for writing. But it does come with a PDF to Word Doc converter as an additional middle finger to Adobe!

I offer it to you freely!

Open Source project for Voice AI orchestration platform on github?

Hi all,

I have been following the open source voice ai projects on github and there has been a very few of them that software engineers can clone and start to use. Most of them come from companies with deep pockets and I am a big admirer of Livekit.

But why is it that there has been no contribution from smaller teams or individuals? Very few choices to explore.

Are you working on it or aware of anyone building a Voice AI orchestration platform?

Before I jump ship from Bitwarden… Is AliasVault worth it?

I’m looking into switching from Bitwarden to an EU-based open-source alternative, and AliasVault recently caught my eye.


I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone with hands-on experience. A few things I’m especially curious about:

* How reliable and polished does it feel in daily use (web app, browser extensions, mobile apps)?
* If you’ve self-hosted it, how smooth was the setup? Any surprises?
* Have you run into bugs, missing features, or anything that made you hesitate?
* What’s your impression of its security model? Is it solid enough to trust long-term?
* And if you’re using both the password manager and the email-alias features, how well do they work together?

Any insights (good and bad) would be incredibly helpful before I make the switch. Thanks!

Accessible Blazor Components - Looking for guidance and potential contacts.

Following up on my previous post about accessibility in Blazor (see [https://www.reddit.com/r/Blazor/comments/1ot98e4/accessibility\_how\_much\_do\_you\_care](https://www.reddit.com/r/Blazor/comments/1ot98e4/accessibility_how_much_do_you_care))

I will now be revisiting prior work that I have done on this topic with the aims of releasing accessible-first Blazor components as open source.

The Plan:

* Individual components released / packaged separately (not a monolithic framework)
* Zero third-party dependencies
* Tested with actual screen readers / assistive tech. (AT)
* WAI-ARIA APG best practices (not a legal requirement but I want to ensure AT usability).
* WCAG 2.2 AA compliant (targeting AAA where feasible)

What I'm Looking For:

* Access to accessibility experts for guidance on WCAG compliance and AT testing
* Folks that that have access to AT devices/software that may be willing to test/review the components on PC, Mac or Mobile. I have NVDA / Narrator and JAWS (40 min limit mode) for windows; I test with each using Chrome, Firefox and Edge.

I have created a GitHub organisation called BlazorRamp which will be utilised shortly for this project, which I have started locally..

Have expertise or interested in contributing? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I’m open‑sourcing Tinker UI - built on top of Thinking Machines’ Tinker Cookbook

Hi everyone
Im building Tinker UI , a web platform that makes working with LLMs easier also for non tech people. You can manage datasets, fine-tune models, chat with them in real time, and even publish your custom models directly to HuggingFace through a user friendly experience. I started it as a weekend hack and it’s still a work in progress, but you can already try it out, give feedback, or contribute.

Someone forked my open source project, removed the license... and then used it to host illegal F1 streams 🤦

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a situation that is equal parts frustrating and hilarious. I maintain an open-source project called Fastlytics (an F1 telemetry analysis tool). It’s under the MIT License.

We all know the deal with MIT: do whatever you want, just keep the license file and copyright notice. Simple, right?

Well, today I discovered a site called f1analytics\[.\]online.

* It is a pixel-perfect clone of my project. They downloaded the repo, hosted it on Vercel, and scrubbed every single mention of my name and the original license. They slapped their own name on the footer as the "Creator."
* They didn't publish their repo. They took my open-source code and effectively made it "closed source" on their end to hide the evidence (though the minified JS still has my variable names in it).
* This is where it gets wild. They didn't just steal the analytics tool; they added a feature to host ILLEGAL PIRATED F1 STREAMS directly on the site.

So, not only are they violating the MIT license by stripping attribution, they are using the stolen codebase to violate Vercel's ToS and international copyright law regarding sports broadcasting.

I’ve already filed a DMCA/Abuse report with Vercel (who hosts them), so I expect them to be nuked from orbit shortly.

It’s just wild to me that someone would go through the effort of stealing open-source work, only to use it to commit a felony on a public cloud provider. Has anyone else dealt with a "fork" that went this rogue?

Is anyone working on an open-source tool that automates apps visually instead of relying on DOM/control trees?

so i've been messing around with different automation frameworks lately, and it feels like everything in the open-source world is still heavily tied to DOM hooks, accessibility layers, or Win32 control trees. that's fine until you hit a hybrid desktop app, or something with a weird UI stack, and suddenly half the selectors or element IDs don’t exist. I’m honestly wondering if anyone is experimenting with a more visual approach, like automation that looks at the screen itself, understands what’s there, and interacts with it the way a human would. Not computer vision from 2008, but something modern and usable.
If there’s an OSS project heading in that direction, would love to check it out or even contribute if possible :)
