SimpleX

In today’s GitHub Trending: SimpleX (identifier-free messaging), Supabase (Postgres development platform), Sn1per (attack-surface management), Nuclei (template-driven vulnerability scanning), and Nest (TypeScript server framework).

The list’s practical theme is operational control: messaging identity, database and auth, security visibility, and application structure all become systems a team must run deliberately.

In last week's GitHub Trending: SimpleX (a messenger that assigns no user identifiers at all, for the privacy-maximalist crowd), CasaOS (a home-server OS that turns a spare box into a personal cloud), Plane (a self-hosted Jira and Linear alternative), and free-for-dev (a directory of free SaaS tiers).

The list sells digital independence. But its second-biggest gainer, CasaOS, hasn't merged a commit in nearly a year, and its own issue tracker is openly asking whether the project is dead.
