This is pretty good, I am surprised I never saw this project before. I was super impressed with the real-time activity widget on the homepage and just as impressed that they actually have a write-up on it assuming people will want to know. I've yet to dive into this fully but I see a lot of potential for ideas and inspiration, so thanks for sharing.

  Yes, we built this tools from May.2022. I am happy you like it. We are open to discuss any ideas on OSSInsight, actually we are planning to make this product more useful and interested, it would release a new version of OSSInsight in near future.

    It's very cool. I'm curious about the name (OSSInsight). It's essentially Github insights (which is not a criticism). Just wondering if you planned on including analytics for gitlab and such somehow?

      Yes, of course, we actually have tried to analyze the dataset from hacker-news too, see this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34110321 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34110321

      But gitlab is not in our list yet.

      As far as I know, gitlab does not provide open data to users

    Ossinsights looks like a great way to survey the solutions available when you start poking into a new area.

Wow... this is neat. Looks like it uses GHArchive. First I'm learning of this too. This page shows other projects using GHArchive data: https://www.gharchive.org/#resources https://www.gharchive.org/#resources

It thinks I mostly use Vue! It should probably look at my commits and not my forked repos.

It's a shame that these tools don't consider organization repos with a single contributor to add up to their star count, for example. Or am I the only one who puts their multi-repo projects under an organization?

That's super cool. I can quickly and easily use natural language to do query. Which AI model is being used? https://ossinsight.io/analyze/kubernetes/kubernetes?playground=enabled#overview https://ossinsight.io/analyze/kubernetes/kubernetes?playgrou...

Have been watching this site for a while. Even more interesting is natural language to search and get answer right away! Check it out here. https://twitter.com/OSSInsight/status/1601253589615271938?s=20&t=Ivio25aJHRTli8XsXeYsGA https://twitter.com/OSSInsight/status/1601253589615271938?s=...

An uncool thing about this is that it essentially bypasses the github profile privacy settings. It also shows data from deleted repositories. Obviously the data its using can be collected-- but ease of access for crazy and abusive people makes a real difference.

Thanks for sharing. I also found their blogs are insightful as well and worthy reading.

I used the search and comparison functions serveral times to compare repos, very straightful and easy to use, very good job for providing such good tool as well as the one stop backend. BTW, collections are also very useful:)

The problem I have with these type of sites is how "issues" are always spun as a negative. I honestly wish GitHub had chosen a different word since a lot of projects use Issues for roadmap, planning, backlog, and more - not just actual bugs. Unfortunately, GH Discussions hasn't really taken off because of, in my opinion, lack of integrations and bad SEO.
