I'd like to share a tool I built and explain why I decided to do this in the first place.

I have been using ScreenStudio to record cool demo videos for some time already, buying and cancelling my subscription, forgetting to cancel sometimes for months.

Then I just got enough. I mean, I love it, but my god, why do I need a subscription for something I download once? Even though I'm building tools with monthly subscriptions, and know that it's way better to have MRR numbers, they look somewhat predictable. But do we really need a subscription for a video recorder?

If I don't upload my video to your servers, I cost you $0/mo.

That's why I wanted to build my own alternative for a while now.

Today I have it, it's called AfterCut. https://aftercut.studio/ $29 one time purchase, and it's yours forever. It uses Polar servers to validate the license key, so you should not be afraid that my servers will just go down and break your app.

It has features like dynamic smart zoom, automatic captions generation, manual captions, backgrounds, webcam styling, and many more.

I know that ScreenStudio started with one time purchase pricing model, but then they got greedy and changed that. While I still see some sense in an optional subscription if you want to use some cloud features, the software you buy must be yours.

Feel free to share your thoughts. It's still a bit buggy, but I'm going to drop some fixes and more features soon.

Thanks!

Lol, I didn't know about Oracle sqlnet at that moment

Back online. Proudly hosted on Raspberry PI, lol

Sounds good. I'm currently offline, due to migration to a different env. But I'll add this.

Hey, this is the author of SQLnet. Feel free to ask me anything about this project.

Sorry, I was asleep. Just realized I got a ton of users overnight. Looking into :)

If you need extended trial - just let me know

Got it.

Does it generate replies like ReplyGuy? I tried it a couple of times, not sure it is worth the money I have spent.

I'd say here, that's may not be about the scalability itself. For me, it's more about convenience. I have been using k8s jobs for a while now.

for some reason, the company I work for wants to fix bad architectural decisions with k8s jobs :)

We had a bunch of issues with k8s jobs, but you are right none of them were k8s fault. But having a need to monitor them, and dump the logs to Loki or DD, made debugging quite complex.

If you need to restart the job devs would go to DevOps slack channel, for the job to be fired manually, etc.

IMO, k8s jobs are more for devops & infra team tasks, not for developers. The biggest upset is the need to spin up the containers for the job to be executed. We put out jobs inside services, so you could call script that has a db conn and it does the job, but we need to isolate rabbitmq connections to not accept messages while the service is in "cron-job" mode.

I know this is more our problem, than the issue with jobs, but still. I have never seen cron jobs implemented with no issues.

Built IndiePNL – a simple tool for managing project finances without the clutter of expensive services or messy spreadsheets.

What it does: 1) Connects to Stripe/LS/Zuora to track your runway and key metrics 2) Monitors spending and co-founder contributions 3) Analyzes trends and gives actionable insights

No-hassle financial management for indie devs and startups.

Would $20/month to eliminate these headaches be worth it? We’re in the whitelist stage. Sign up at indiepnl.com.

Haha

Yeah. That makes sense. I'll play around with that. Thank you

Hahaha. How does that happen?)

I can relate
