After too many noisy PR reviews, I built a deterministic one

I didn’t start PRFlow to make reviews faster , I built it to make them reliable.

PR reviews weren’t blocked because people were slow.They were blocked because reviews were **inconsistent, noisy and context poor**.

So I built PRFlow around a different premise:
**Every PR deserves a consistent, low-noise first pass before humans step in.**

What PRFlow is optimized for :

* **Deterministic reviews** Same change → same feedback. No randomness, no “AI mood swings.”
* **Context-aware analysis** Looks beyond the diff and respects how the codebase actually works, not just what changed.
* **Low-noise comments** No long essays, no nitpicks. Only issues that matter to correctness, risk and maintainability.
* **First-pass focus** It’s not trying to replace reviewers. It handles the repetitive baseline so humans can focus on intent and architecture.
* **GitHub-native workflow** Lives directly in PRs. No new dashboards, no process changes.

What I’ve learned while building this:

* Review noise kills trust faster than slow feedback
* Consistency matters more than “smart” suggestions
* One bad review can undo ten good ones
* Fewer comments often lead to better discussions

PRFlow is currently in beta and being tested by teams running real production PRs. Most of what’s shipping next is coming directly from early feedback and real review pain, not feature wishlists.

open-source Electron + Angular text editor

Hi


I wanted to share a project I have been working on, it's really early in it's development but i wanted to share it and possibility get some other's who are interested to help out.

I’m working on Flufy, an open-source desktop text editor built with Electron and Angular, and I’m looking for early feedback and potential contributors.

Flufy started as a learning project, but I’m aiming to grow it into a genuinely usable, well-architected editor with a strong focus on tooling and performance.


What I’m looking for

Feedback on architecture and design
Suggestions for editor features or UX improvements
Contributors interested in:
Editor internals
UI/UX
Performance
Electron or Angular tooling
Anything really


The project is still evolving, but I’ve tried to keep things structured and approachable. I’m very happy to guide new contributors.

We’re building PushFlow — an open-source real-time push notification framework

Hey everyone!

We’re working on PushFlow, an open-source, standalone real-time push notification framework built with a microservice architecture.

PushFlow is designed to handle notification requests through a gateway service, route them using a dispatcher, and deliver them in real time through dedicated delivery services (such as WebSockets or SSE). The focus is on keeping responsibilities clear, communication asynchronous, and the system easy to self-host and extend.

The stack is intentionally straightforward: NestJS with TypeScript, Docker for local and production setups, Redis for event coordination, and MongoDB for persistence. The goal is to provide a clean and understandable foundation for real-time notification delivery, without being tied to a specific application or platform.

We’re publishing the project in the open from the start and would really appreciate feedback on the architecture, design decisions, and overall direction. If you’re interested in real-time systems, distributed services, or notification infrastructure, we’d love to hear your thoughts.

More updates and the repository coming soon.

Best Caller and Contact App

Hi everyone,

I am facing an issue with my caller and the contact app preinstalled in my Android phone. The contact set a default sim and I cannot make it ask every time. Similarly, the caller app is using some sensor to keep my screen alive while calling, but that sensor is damaged as my phone fell on the floor multiple times, and I have to change the panel.

The list goes on.

What alternatives you guys are using?

Built a small pdf reader because highlights are useless in most apps

I built a mobile app (Loci) over the past few days..

Repo: https://github.com/Sriram-PR/loci-mobile

I made it because I read long pdfs, and in most readers highlights are hard to revisit. If a document has 100+ pages, finding out what you already marked becomes annoying and slow.

Loci is a memory first pdf reader. Highlights are the main view. You can search them instantly and jump back to the exact page and context in pdf. The goal is fast recall, not rereading everything.

It's built with flutter. I did not have time to properly learn Dart, so this was very much vibe coded to solve my own problem. It's early but usable.
Would appreciate any feedback, especially on ux and missing features.

A dementia-management tool I'd like to exist

A few years ago, I had an idea for an open-source project that I'd like to exist, to help people with severe dementia and their caregivers. I have pretty much none of the skills that would be helpful in making it happen. I have a few decades of programming experience, but none in software architecture, and at present my health problems limit my ability to learn major new skills. I'm throwing this idea out here, basically in the hope that it gets the attention of someone who can do something with it.

Background: my wife has several serious health problems, and has spent a lot of time in hospitals. Frequently, when I visit her there, I can hear people with dementia yelling from other rooms: they don't understand where they are, they're confused, they want someone to help them now. Apart from their own distress, they're upsetting other patients and visitors, and it takes a toll on the caregivers as well.

In one hospital stay, my wife was sharing a room with an extremely frail, elderly woman. She was barely moving, apart from talking incessantly: "Margaret? Is my oxygen on? Are you there? Is my oxygen okay? Margaret?" Occasionally a nurse would come in and reassure her that her oxygen was fine, and that would settle her... for about five minutes. And then she would start again, because she couldn't hold the thought.

It occurred to me that what she really could use was an automated system that could listen for her to say the word "oxygen", and tell her in the voice of Margaret (whoever that was!) something like "Your oxygen is fine. You're safe, in the hospital."

The logic of such a system wouldn't need to be any more complex than what the old "Eliza" program did. Check for keywords, spit out a recorded response. It would be complicated by difficulty in training it, given the non-ideal conditions for sound pickup and that many such patients don't enunciate well. It would be simplified by not necessarily even having to do full speech-to-text; merely being able to recognize sound patterns (e.g. vowel pattern "aw-ih-eh" for "oxygen") might suffice. It wouldn't even have to generate its own speech, since it could simply play canned messages recorded by someone. Margaret, whoever that was... (I'll admit to having had thoughts of "Are you there, Margaret? It's me, God.")

My wife is a dementia specialist, and she thinks that something like this would be extremely beneficial towards "reorienting" people with severe dementia. I've asked a few hospital nurses, and they love the idea. I've discussed the concept with a friend who was a linguistics expert with Dragon Naturally Speaking, and he agrees with my assessments of the problems.

My impression is that this shouldn't require especially powerful hardware. I'd like the thing to be freely available, since medical costs are high; it ought to be able to run on something like a relatively-old mobile device. I don't want it locked down to a particular platform, or owned by some company for profit.

Is there some way that this can happen?

Made a simple tool to see what languages are actually in your project!

I made a quick bash noscript called kats that shows you exactly what languages are in your project with actual percentages!

Install is literally one line:

bash

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lattiece/kats/main/install.sh | bash

Then just run kats in any project folder.

It's fast, supports 40+ languages, and doesn't need any dependencies installed.

GitHub: https://github.com/lattiece/kats

lmk if you think it's useful or if I should add something!

Where would most privacy focused users draw the line on IP logging, ads, and age verification?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this (I thought about r/privacy but I think this post would violate their rule 14) but I need some advice relating to an open source website I'm building. I'm currently working on a low-budget, privacy-focused video sharing platform (similar to YouTube) and want to know where most privacy-focused users would draw the line with privacy, especially when it comes to certain features I'm not sure I can avoid.

For example, in my current setup, I was unable to avoid logging user IP addresses, which is something I feel many users may have a problem with, even though the IP addresses are only stored temporarily for rate limiting to work, as well as because Bunny.net, my video storage service, states that they also collect IP addresses temporarily from viewers. (for analytics if recall correctly...) Additionally, I want to add advertisements (though not nearly as much as YouTube has), but I'm not sure if there's any ad services I can use that don't track users. I may end up having to build my own ad service to keep advertisers from tracking users. Furthermore, while I haven't checked any laws regarding this yet, I may be legally required to ask for users age or even use AI age verification in certain regions. I'm not sure if there's any way around this or if there's any less invasive ways for me to legally comply than using something like Google's controversial and invasive AI age verification system.

Now of course unless you're going to have zero algorithm, you're going to need to track some user statistics, even if no human ever sees the data. I'm also curious if the average privacy-focused user will be okay with the platform keeping track of which types of videos they often watch in order to suggest similar content.

What do you all think I should do?

What’s the biggest mistake people make when choosing an IPTV service?

In my opinion, most people chase cheap prices or huge channel lists, instead of focusing on stability and support. That usually works fine at first… until peak hours hit.

I’ve tested multiple IPTV services over time. The ones that looked amazing on day one often failed during big matches or weekends because they were oversold. The reliable ones were always the ones that limited users and actually offered testing and support.

If anyone’s confused about what to look for or wants advice before choosing a service I would recommend you to one IPTV that somehow worked really good for me.

open sourced my browser based file-converter / tools site, looking for testers and ideas to improve UI/UX.

hey, just open sourced FormatFuse today. its a file conversion tool where everything happens in your browser using webassembly. nothing gets uploaded anywhere.

has image conversion, pdf tools, video processing, archive extraction, dev utilities. all client side put it under AGPL-3.0. figured if im saying files stay on your device people should be able to verify that.

mainly looking for:

\- people to test it and break things

\- feedback on what sucks

\- ideas for new tools that could work in browser

Goal is to make a large collection of browser based tools, keep eveything free and open source and no annoying ads.
