Very cool but what it is missing is showing when projects were updated last. I got excited seeing there was an Android app for Portainer but going to Github I can see last update was done 2 years ago. I don’t use Portainer anymore so it is not worth trying for me if it still works as intended.

To be fair, last update isn’t the end all be all. If the project is in a stable place, and there haven’t been any breaking changes, there’s just no need to update.

On the one hand, sure. On the other hand, if there hasn’t been even a tiny bug fix or feature update in that long it calls into question (at least for me) whether when there is inevitably a breaking change, security issue with a library, whatever - that it will be addressed. If I don’t have some level of confidence in that, I’d rather not rely on the tool.

This kind of concern could be handled by contacting the developer or engaging with the community around the tool to see what the project status is, and why it isn’t being updated.

Isn’t PWA better in most cases?

You always have that option, of course, but thanks to this list, I just learned about Plappa (a custom front end for jellyfin and audiobookshelf, etc…) . I wouldn’t have found that on my own, most likely, and I like the idea of having one client for all of that media so I’ll check it out.

That’s fair. I only learned about PWA because of a combo of Lemmy and SilverBullet

F-droid also has lots of apps to choose from although it is an actual app store not a listing
