* Tool that creates Twitter (X?) / Instagram feeds to RSS so I don't have to deal with algorithms etc.
* A turn based game that is essentially "football manager for counter strike" where you control the whole team and their actions in "planning" and "execution" phases.
* I run a Slack community for the South African tech scene, constantly hovering between "I wish I could sell this and move on" and "I really should put in the effort to monetise / grow this".

- n1c 3y agoThis is great, thanks for the link!
- remram 3y agoI was using 1, until Twitter shut down their API. How do you do this now? Scrape the HTML?
- n1c 3y agoYeah or use "unofficial apis" e.g. Nitter (https://github.com/zedeus/nitter https://github.com/zedeus/nitter)
- sphars 3y agoUnfortunately Nitter broke earlier this week thanks to some changes by Twitter: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/983 https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/983 I was using a self-hosted Nitter instance for the RSS feeds as I deactivated my Twitter account
- eggsome 3y agoHow do early stage Tech enterprises deal with the instability and problematic infrastructure in South Africa?
- n1c 3y agoThis is quite hard to answer in any succinct way. It mostly comes down to "you're earning enough to just get around them". SA is kind of a place of extremes, there is extreme poverty, unemployment etc. But if you're lucky enough to have a good job you get Uber Eats, Netflix, 200mb fibre to your house etc.
