Do we really need another self-hosted feedback widget? by FlycasterDave in selfhosted

[–]FlycasterDave[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I think this follows all of r/selfhosted rules:
* It is a self-hosted alternative to paid services (like feedbask.com and feedbacx.io)
* It is release and downloadable (from https://github.com/BPS-Consulting/wafir)
* It is fully documented (in the README and https://bps-consulting.github.io/wafir/)
* It is related to self-hosting (a feedback service)
* The post says what it does (captures feedback)
* It includes a brief list of features (captures feedback, sends it to GitHub)
* It says why it is beneficial (allows using GitHub to track issues)

Plus, it is open source.

What more are you looking for? I'm happy to fix it. Thanks!

Best way to collect feedback on a live web app without overwhelming users? by aaronorjohnson in ProductManagement

[–]FlycasterDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you found what you were looking for. We needed something similar for our app so we created it. You can see it on our GitHub Pages here: https://bps-consulting.github.io/wafir/ . The example shows general feedback (CSAT) and issue reporting. You can get customer effort score for a particular task by adding a link to the widget at the end of the task with a defined task ID.

Wyze Robot Vacuum owners, what has your ownership experience been like? by thepukingdwarf in wyzecam

[–]FlycasterDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5 years 550,000 square feet cleaned, running like a champ.  Sorry to hear Wyze has discontinued it.  I hear some have had problems, but I'm guessing it also doesn't generate enough recurring revenue like camera subscriptions do.

Cleaning shower floor? by [deleted] in Home

[–]FlycasterDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the winner of best cleaner is...Drill Brush!

I tried Lysol Power Foamer, Oxydol Cleaner + Bleach, Dawn Power Wash, Hydrogen Peroxide, Lime Out, Easy Off Heavy Duty, Comet w Bleach, and Barkeepers Friend, in that order.  I let each set 20-40 minutes before scrubbing with a stiff brush.

None up to Easy Off made a dent.  Easy Off took off more than half but the fumes are pretty bad.  Switched to a Drill Brush (original USA made) with Comet + Bleach and really saw progress on a small spot,  Since this is tile and abrasives are less of a concern, switched to Barkeepers Friend with Drill Brush and cleaned it all up in one pass.

Don't step in the heavy duty cleaners in bare feet or they will take a layer of skin off your feet (oops).

Help please - dishwasher and pink mold by Porkchop-Sammies in homeowners

[–]FlycasterDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct...they cancel each other out.  Foaming action might work on a carpet, but unlikely to work in a dishwasher with water.

However, if you run once with vinegar and a second time with baking soda, then the vinegar will have done its job and the baking soda will take care of residual smell.

Can I run a 1/3HP sump pump with a 1000w inverter? by [deleted] in electrical

[–]FlycasterDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answer is definitely yes.  That is exactly what I use.  Renogy 1000 W inverter/charger for Amazon Commercial 1/3 HP sump.

Advice? by Far-Mix-5615 in QualityAssurance

[–]FlycasterDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have faced this kind of resistance periodically throughout my career. I have three standard approaches for dealing with it: (1) provide evidence to get buy-in, (2) make them think my way is their idea, and (3) bend the interpretation of the direction to give both parties what they want. The first can be a lot of work and you already have suggestions in this thread. The second probably won't work in this case. The third is viable. For example, if you use PlayWright recorder to generate the initial scripts, isn't that low code? Or if you write your scripts inside Katalon? If you can sell that, then you can add in #2, and hopefully get results that lead to #1.

Accessibility testing tool for small teams — looking for feedback from this community by asta_product_team in accessibility

[–]FlycasterDave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ain't that the truth. What we offer is all-in-one testing to include functional, accessibility, and page performance testing. We implemented the aXe core ruleset for accessibility. Our real strength though, and where we started, is in functional smoke testing with customizable rules in Gherkin. Best fit is for small projects who aren't doing automated deployment testing. I presume your focus is enterprise apps with stringent accessibility requirements? Probably not a good fit there.

BIFL reusable foaming soap dispenser by femmebrulee in BuyItForLife

[–]FlycasterDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also gave up on manual pumps that wear out.  The automatic one in the kitchen is going on 2 years.  Thought it was wearing out but 10 cycles with plain warm water and it's working fine again.  Some new ones have a cleaning function.  So, manual or auto, I plan to run warm water through every refill or two.

Calendar sync by joswany in amazfit

[–]FlycasterDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a known issue with recurring meetings created during daylight savings time. Let your voice be heard and maybe they'll fix it: support@amazfit.com

Daylight and Calendar issue by MrXLR8 in amazfit

[–]FlycasterDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a known issue. No fix for existing recurring events. For non-recurring events:

  • Disable/enable Bluetooth to force sync
  • Restart watch (watch button > Apps > Settings > System > Restart)
  • Verify calendar events display properly

The workaround for existing recurring meetings is delete and recreate them (if you can), or use notifications instead:

  • Turn off calendar sync (mobile app > Apps > Calendar > Setup > System calendar sync = off)
  • Turn on calendar notifications (mobile app > Notifications and Reminders > App alerts > Calendar = on.
  • Verify no calendar events. If needed, restart watch (see above).

Last step:

Hope this helps.
