#64Anyone here managed to like Odoo?
It's the first ERP system I work with and the experience is sobering so far.
- no useful documentation aka read the code bro, it's open source
- "FIXME don't ever do this" comments all over the code base
- no update routine: download source of enterprise edition, patch your private repo, feed it in your CD/CI. I'm pretty sure vulnerabilities get patched quickly all over the world ;)
- weird design decisions like undocumented semantics for identifiers (variables, module names etc.)
- Python/JS/XML code living in the database (i.e. need the production DB to develop/test)
- performance
- addons needed for serious business use cases are not open source
- code quality of third party addons is a nightmare
Maybe this is still harmless compared to its competitors, I don't know...

Having XML/JSON stored in DB is pretty common actually (sometimes you need to store same/related info with different "schemas").
Storing Python and JS.....WTF?

#66I’m finding this more useful as a reverse search!
“Paid, supported, professional alternative to”

#67Sentry is among these products that are open-source but hardly self-hostable.
I mean, unless you fancy an Ops team to run your error reporting. But generally speaking, unless you have extreme privacy concerns, the economics favor SaaS subscriptions.

#68I'm not sure how it works at first glance. OK, let's search for "Word". I'd assume LibreOffice and the like would come up - but instead, I get "WooCommerce" and "Wordle Global, Open Source Alternative to Wordle".
I understand apparently this is not how the page is supposed to be used - but isn't it how an average user would use a service named "opensourcealternative.to"? What am I missing?

#69I have also been building something similar at https://ossdatabase.com Recently released code under AGPL-3.( https://github.com/prithvi16/ossdatabase ) But I want to go beyond aggregation and add following things - User reviews, ratings - Researcherd guides comparing features in most common usecases - Interviews with Opensource maintainers, founders. - Being able to create collections like awesome lists - Everything…
You might want to add some tags to the Vaultwarden entry - I was just in the process of submitting it because it wasn't tagged under password managers, when I stumbled across it by accident when looking for the original Bitwarden entry.

Such systems are usually divided into platform and customization, so that customization can be tweaked without reinstalling the whole thing.
