@gamingonlinux aaaand it's dead :D
@ben @gamingonlinux Still API issues? Thought they finished moving to the new infra.^^

@Natanox @ben @gamingonlinux They did. From the last status message, it's all software issues now.

@gamingonlinux they had a huge influx of users in about a week so they're having issues
@gamingonlinux I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere, fluxer is some intense LLM slop (see https://web.archive.org/web/20260222131907/https://github.com/fluxerapp/fluxer/issues/467 )

@kerio whatever that is doesn't load for me
@kerio loaded now, eventually - i see nothing that actually shows anything, many things are developed privately and then put online that's not evidence of anything at all

@gamingonlinux @kerio Every time the "milliion lines of code" argument shows up, people fail to realize that they all come from 2 commits:
* The initial squashed commit from when the project became public.
* 1 commit in the refactor branch that changed the file structure a bunch (this means that for each renamed / moved file, there are hundreds of lines of code remove from one file, and added in another).

That's it. That's the argument.

@gamingonlinux @kerio oh no, a dev used tools to move fast on an mvp ๐Ÿ˜ฑ
@kerio @gamingonlinux
Based on their description I would probably not characterize it as *full* of slop, but the owner does describe how they use LLMs to supplement their dev process.

@gamingonlinux seems promising! I was using it a bit right before there was an influx of users this last month and it seemed to work well generally.

Hopefully they get their issues sorted out soon.
