Hey! Saw it last week...I have a few questions for you :)

- How does it compare to GlitchTip, for instance? - Is it "feature complete" / production-ready? - Are you using it some prod projects yet?

It seems to be mostly a one-band, so curious about your current production usage, and dedication to it :)

* It's certainly production-ready; the installed base for serious use (visiting at least weekly, deployed somewhere) is in the hundreds and we have users with ~1M events daily. Obviously, I'm using it myself in all my production projects.

* "feature complete" depends on your feature-set :-). It's very much focused on Error Tracking; APM is not on the roadmap. But within the feature-set of Error-Tracking, I'd like to think it's best-of-class.

* Comparison with GlitchTip: Bugsink is built from the ground up with self hosting in mind. You'll first notice the difference when going through the installation instructions (getting started is literally faster than signing up for a SaaS solution) but it also shows e.g. in the required maintenance.

* One-band: yes, but I've incorporated and I'm serious about it.

Awesome! Thanks for the detailed answer :)

Sounds promising! I'll have a closer look and likely give it a shot soon-ish.

Dates are must. They don't need to be big and bold, just to be there, somewhere. When I read a blog post, I need that information for context. It is especially true for technical blog posts. Was it written before version X? What was the context this was written in? Date helps.

I am not using ecrire, but I see a bunch of reasons to use that over Ghost, but it depends on each user's use cases. For me, first, Ghost is in Node. I prefer my stuff to be in Ruby, especially if I want to change stuff and/or contribute. That said, if it does not fit your needs...

Side note: I was deceived by Ghost. I was expecting their dashboard to be there on version one, but after a whole bunch of commits and a few months, with money, it is still not there. Anyways, no big deal! :)

Is passenger the most popular? Is there any reliable statistics available somewhere?

Just keep in mind your code (and gem's code) needs to be thread safe.

Out of curiosity, why today?

I mean, this is not new at all, there is no major version that was released AFAIK...

This is great to share that though, just curious why it's on HN today? :)

Edit: typo fix.

Agreed. I also recall seeing it on HN before, and not that long ago.

You may have seen a recent comment, looks like the main page was posted a year ago -- I relied on the URL duplicate checker when submitting it (it was new to me today to come across and I wanted to see thoughts from the HN community on it).

I ran a the search and found the previous:

Fair enough. Just thought I might have missed something new and big! :)

Awesome one! :)

The library was already existing, changing name and namespace for a mascot would probably not make sense ;)

I should've said that my comment was meant to be read in Comic Book Guy voice :).

I have been using octokit for a while now and it is by far the best wrapper around for Ruby. Just make sense to have it official now that Wynn Netherland is working @ GitHub.

Hahaha, awesome! Made me laugh out loud, alone, in my home office! :)
