A few weeks ago, we learned via GitHub's annual Octoverse report that around 230 new repositories are created on the platform every minute. And while this newsletter is an attempt to eliminate as much of that noise as possible, I still receive regular feedback that my lists can be a bit overwhelming at times (I'm currently on track to have covered more than 1,000 new projects in 2025, which equates to ~19/week). If you're one of those people, you'll likely be interested in a post I published this week outlining my favorite self-hosted software launches of 2025 (link below). As are all lists, it's a bit biased towards my own interests, so I'd encourage everyone to continue exploring new software and not write off any that didn't make it (like Termix and NetVisor). On the topic of new software, it's become somewhat of a trend over the last several months for new projects to describe themselves as 'modern'. Not only is this not a helpful descriptor (What is 'modern'? Is the design modern? The codebase?), but a good portion of the time it's simply not true. Please stop.
