This past December, I featured a new Docker management platform called Dockhand in the New Software section of this newsletter. At the time, I mentally wrote the project off for several reasons. Not only is the market for these platforms already a bit saturated, but the project's low-res icon is a bit off-putting and its repo features an AI disclaimer that reminds me of the older trend where people thought posting 'Facebook is required to respect my privacy' actually meant Facebook was legally obligated to respect their privacy. Needless to say, I was a bit surprised to see it pop up in several places across the community this week, most notably covered by DB Tech and Lawrence Systems over on YouTube. In general, the consensus seems to be that the platform's functionality, ease-of-use, and streamlined interface make it more attractive than many of its counterparts. There's probably a lesson to be learned here about not judging a book by its cover, but regardless – if you've been put off by Portainer's recent rebranding or don't need Komodo's bells and whistles, you should probably check it out. Unrelatedly (but on the topic of icons), selfh.st/icons officially hit 100 million+ monthly requests this week. The project is a labor of love that consumes more of my time than I'd care to admit, and I'm extremely grateful to all who've contributed. As usual, drop a discussion on GitHub if the collection is missing anything you might need for your project, dashboard, etc. If you're looking for other things to dig into this weekend, check out this new comic format created by a Redditor after debating the merits of CBZ on a manga subreddit, Snikket's (XMPP) upcoming Android makeover, and Raspberry Pi's new flash drive. Happy selfh.st/ing! Newswire
